Are your disks or other essential peripherals attached to
the ncr card? As a last resort, you might consider taking
that card out if you can and seeing if the scanner works
with sane in a simplified system.

Does this happen in all scanning modes, with all sizes of
images? Does your system lock up? Can you give the exact
text of the error message?

Thanks,

Kevin
