I would say a more realistic number is 3-4% of the vista users are the ones that do not run into problems.." My 3-4% (probably much higher) number thrownout was, as I specifically stated, people that were _dissatisfied_ with Vista, not that couldn't get it to work. It's probably much higher.

Or could this be a lame attempt by Microsoft to avoid yet another anti-trust action, because consumers are offered the choice of one or the other right out of the box? The mind numbs with all the questions that could be asked here. Sounds like system performance tweak number one for Vista is to disable Microsoft

vista 64 a driverless lame duck?
When I went to Vista it became almost unusable in either Vista 32 or Vista 64. I tried VueScan but decided against it as it didn't allow slide/film strip scanning. I gave up and bought a different scanner after first making SURE it was supported in Vista 32 and 64. It's a Canon CanoScan 4400F which didn't really

-jcr Since you obviously have no firsthand experience with Vista with a lame remark like that, maybe you could just keep quit next time. You don't follow the industry news much, do you? Go read up on the list of features that were supposed to make longhorn worth the wait, that had to be abandoned. -jcr.

Although Epson was adamant about NEVER providing 64-bit support, they did put out a "Vista 32-bit only" driver. Out of curiosity I downloaded the file, unzipped it and poked around. It turned out Epson had included a Vista x64 driver also which installed on my XP x64 and my scanner now works perfectly.
