I had exactly the same problem on my 900 Duron running 98 when I tried to install my A40s software on it.

In the end I just downloaded the Twain32 driver for the A40 from canon, and used it instead to down load pics directly into a folder on my HDD.

Then I tried zoom browser to manage the photos but found it ran far to slowly, I eventualy upgraded to Win XP and used its built in folder custom options to manage my photos. I still use it now with my new A80, which forunatly suprorts direct connect with XP, so no need for any of the canon software.
