Re: TWAIN / Canoscan : CPU=100%!

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

From: "Nico" <nzeches_Beurk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

| Hello folks
|
| I have a Canon LIDE50 scanner under windows 2000pro. The scanner is working
| on and off, and sometimes reboots my PC, with or without blue screen.
| I noticed that when I start to acquire from the scanner, Scangear CS opens
| and my CPU goes up to 100% ; that might actually cause CPU overheating and
| could explain a BIOS-triggered reboot.
|
| Is this a "normal" TWAIN behavior under W2K to eat up all CPU time ? Is
| Canoscan Scangear/CS or the LiDE50 driver in cause ? Or do I have a problem
| with my configuration that causes the CPU to jump up so high when scanning ?
|
| Thanks in advance for your advice in resolving this problem.

Go to the Canon Web Site and download the latest drivers from the web site. Completely
remove the old drivers then install the new drivers. Even if the drivers are the same
version, I suggest uninstalling and reoinstalling the Canon drivers.

BTW: If your system is cleaned of all dust around the CPU cooling fan, this can not happen.
If not, anything can cause the CPU to overheat.
