Perhaps you need to look at your (regional??) settings in XP. Look in
the control panel and change the sewtting there.

Once changed you may need to uninstall and reinstall the scanner
software.

If that doesn't work then you may have bought scanner software that only
works in French. After all you bought the scanner in France, true?
Contact Canons help or look on their webpage for the English
Version.

By the way can i be your luggage next trip... I've been brushing up on
french.
