Answer 1

Hi Kedar31,
I understand you are looking for the WIA driver.
Windows Image Acquisition (WIA; sometimes also called Windows Imaging Architecture) is a proprietary Microsoft driver model and application programming interface (API) for Microsoft Windows Me and later Windows operating systems that enables graphics software to communicate with imaging hardware such as scanners, digital cameras and Digital Video-equipment. It was first introduced in 2000 as part of Windows Me, and continues to be the standard imaging device and API model through successive Windows versions. It is implemented as an on-demand service in Windows XP and later Windows operating systems
Resource: Wikipedia
The Shell Hardware Detection service runs as LocalSystem in a shared process. It shares an executable file with other services. If the Shell Hardware Detection fails to load or initialize, Windows 7 start up proceeds. No warning is displayed, but the error is recorded into the Event Log.
Dependencies
Shell Hardware Detection will not start, if the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service is stopped or disabled.
If the Shell Hardware Detection is stopped, the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) fails to start and initialize

To summarize, these services are necessary for scanning. Please complete the following steps to see if we can resolve the issue you are experiencing.
Hold down the Windows Logo key () on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box
Type services.msc and press Enter
Locate Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)
Right click and open Properties
Stop the service from the General tab and then Start it again
Verify that the Startup type is set to Automatic rather then manual
Also, look for 'Shell Hardware Detection' in the list of services. If it is not enabled/started, make sure to enable/start the service, and make sure the Startup Type set as Automatically from its properties.
Locate the 'Remote Procedure Call (RPC)' in the list of services. If it is not enabled/started, make sure to enable/start the service, and make sure the Startup Type set as Automatically as well.
