    Personally I've had no problems with mutiple usb devices or Canon camera
    drivers.
    Non MS verified is of little cosequence.
    Does Cannon supply a driver uninstall utility or give info on how to
    completely remove a failed driver install? - I havent looked.
    Perhaps try installing, using the specific instructions from Canon re how to
    install, to a 'bare sys' ie all background apps stopped inc.AV software.
