You have been paying too much attention to Ken, Tina, who raised this just a
week ago. I replied to suggest that was not the case, and offered the
following link to an explanation of how to get it up and running. Granted,
it doesn't work straight out of the box, but there is no shortage of
detailed instructions, and plenty of happy "It worked!" responses:

I don't think Nikonscan works with Windows 7. They never updated the
drivers or something like that.
I would be happy to get the scan to look just like the Kodachrome slides.
I don't seem to have a problem with Provia, Astia, etc. Just Kodachrome.
Thanks,
Tina
