Default Scanner for Cards

So it finally happened ...my new computer does not recognize my old scanner, which made the best card scans ever!

Can anybody recommend a good Canon scanner that shows cards beautifully and works with Microsoft 7?

I am partial to Canon, because my last one -- a CanoScan 3000F -- cost me just $50, and made great scans like this one:

Just make sure the scanning element is a CCD & NOT a CIS or you will be sorely disappointed! I'm pretty positive your 3000 is a CCD.

You won't get one for $50 anymore unless you buy a used one on EBay.

Default Canon Scanner...

Get a 8800F...
This one is highly recommended by a few board members, and I bought one, and it the scans are beautiful. If you do a search on scanner's, this subject has been covered in depth in the past. Good Luck ! (BTW - This scan has No editing/touch up whatsoever)
