I know what you mean. I have a great high res scanner that can scan 35mm negatives and slides and medium format negatives as well. When the desktop finally gave up on me and I had to upgrade to win7 the scanner wasn't supported and canon wouldn't update the driver. I can still use it with a win xp 10" netbook I have but it's not ideal. I did find an aftermarket software company that will supply a driver but for $50 US.
