That's why we switched to the OpticBook when we went to Windows 7, Tracy and
Lori! We were surprised and disappointed too but love our OpticBook 3800!

Hi Lori.
Yeah, that's what I thought would happen with my scanner, too.  But no.  I
looked up my model on the Epson site, and it specifically says they don't
have a 64-bit driver for it, but I could use this 3rd-party software.  But
that's not a driver, and I don't know how to make it talk with K1000, and
neither does my tech support crew.
