I have a Canon Canoscan 8800F and I use Vuescan when scanning slides and negatives because the software gives me much greater control than the Canoscan software. The problem is, Vuescan does not work on Windows x64.

With Windows 7, I installed the optional (and free) virtual PC from microsoft and run the Vuescan software in a virtual XP session under windows 7.

It gives my 100% backwards 32-bit compatibility without having to run another physical computer.
