Microsoft reports no drivers from the manufacturer, to try luck with the driver of windows Vista, but does not explain how to make it work.

After you download the driver, you have to run the "setup.exe" in support "Windows Vista" mode.
But before you do read the following explanation because you have to do something else before I install it, otherwise it does not work.
As I said, after trying I did not recognize the driver, I tried to take the driver manually
but windows saying that the driver was not digitally signed and you can't install if driver is not signed.
I Search the web such as disable that control and found a step in the url:

After following the steps I could install the scanner driver and HR8 works correctly in Windows 8.1
LAST:
Now you can run the setup.exe in compatibility mode with Windows Vista, at the end makes restart the computer,
Now you got the scanner Genius ColorPage HR8 running on Windows 8.1

Thanks.
You may try uninstalling the existing drivers\software and install them in the Vista Compatibility Mode and check if it helps. To do so, follow these steps.
Go here: http://www.geniusnet.com/geniusOnl [...] let-action
Scroll down the page until you see the ColorPage Vivid 1200x - try selecting the Vista or XP driver package and seeing if you can force it to work.
That being said I do not believe any of the Genius brand scanners are on the Windows 7 Compatibility List. ( found here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/c [...] s&v=Genius )
< ----------------------------------------They also state that the product specifically states what it is compatible with and does NOT state it is compatible with Vista. :(
