I've a new computer w/Win7.

Win 7 did not detect my scanner, and Canon no longer supports it, but I was able to find a program called VueScan which lets Win7 recognize my scanner.

Is there something like VueScan for the following (or another workaround)?...

I have a T-Mobile Dash which uses ActiveSync, but Win7/Vista now calls ActiveSync Window Mobile Device Center. I DL'd that program from the MS site, and it doesn't work -- at all. I get an error message when I try to install it. I'd be happy if I can just get the images off of it. Is there perhaps a program that can recognize the phone, whether it syncs it or not?

I also have a Wacom pen-mouse, which I used on my old computer via a Xircom Serial-to-USB adapter. Neither the adaptor nor the Wacom are meant to be used w/Win7.

Any tips would be great. THANK YOU!

For those wondering:

1. Windows Mobile Device Center ran once I right-clicked the EXE file, then chose RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR. It loaded w/out issue. But it wouldn't run by double-clicking at all. It was a simple fix, but not something someone new to Win7 would think of. (Got it from a Dell tech...although, it should be noted, a previous Dell tech spent an hour on the phone with me and was unable to resolve the issue.)

2. I am still trying to find a way to get my Xircom PortGear USB To 9 pin Serial Converter to work. I have a Win2000 driver and tried Compatibility mode but so far no luck. Any tips would be appreciated. Will create a special topic for this, so unless an admin feels this thread should be closed, you can post here (otherwise, search the forums for Xircom for my other post).
