Try to install iPhoto + (a program of win95) on Windows 7...

iPhoto + is since the time of Win95, but I used it allso in Win XP. Now, I have Windows 7, and it simply won't work. Or I can't install it and make it work with my scanner... I can get it to allmost work of the disc, but do not cooperate with my scanner...

The message I get is: error in TWAIN, [T009]

Activation of the [T020] TWAIN data source error

I really need this program... Please help me...

Sonpet Hello,

Your scanner is compatible with Windows 7? Click here to open the Windows 7 Compatibility Center and you can check the software and hardware for compatibility issues.

If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

Use the following steps:

(1) right click on the program

2) click Properties

3) click on the Compatibility tab

(4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

If compatibility is not successful, then try and self-test program compatibility issues:

1. open the program compatibility problems theStart button.

Then click on Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting tool, then clickTroubleshooting. Under programs, clickRun done for previous versions of Windows.

2. follow the instructions in the troubleshooting.

If you are unable to install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the Troubleshoot utility, navigate to the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. This utility is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.

If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.

If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or VMware Player (www.vmware.com), or any other software virtualization part 3rd and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can find the virtualization software free that will run on Windows 7 Home Premium.

Please answer back with an update.
