Ok guys, ran into a problem I just can't seem to solve. I am running Windows 7 with 8GB memory. Photoshop CS5. Canon 4200F scanner. Everything worked fine from day one when I bought the scanner new, then one day, for no apparent reason, the scanner software would freeze when trying to open up the Canoscan toolbox. I uninstalled all drivers, Canoscan Toolbox, and started fresh again. Everything worked like it should except now it takes forever, almost 5 minutes, to open up the image in Photoshop. To me, this would indicate a memory problem but that's just my best guess. I have no other programs running and like I said, all I did was re-install the software. All drivers are correct and updated, just the same as originally installed. Dialog box pops up as normal saying transferring image to Photoshop, it just takes forever to do so. I even have Photoshop already opened and running, its the transferring of image that takes forever. I'm scanning at 300 dpi, just as before when it was working correctly before. I've tried scanning at a lower resolution, 72 dpi, and that doesn't make a difference. I'm usually pretty good at figuring these things out, but this one has me stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
