I finally had Silverfast working with Firewire at version 6.2.1r1, under Panther 10.3.3. Sometime after upgrading to 10.3.4, I again tried Silverfast only to get the spinning beachball of death, sometimes upon merely trying to open the driver in Photoshop, and at other times after the scan was begun. Silverfast was reliable under USB, but never Firewire until version 6.2.1r1. I updated to 6.2.1r5 and got one good scan, but then the problem returned. Methinks this is a thorny item to troubleshoot, as there are so many variables, and this problem never appeared before. I could CCC a clone of a recent working system to some spare drive space & see if my scanner operates smoothly from the clone… I am wondering if anyone reading this has had similar troubles?
My system:
Blue & White Rev 1 running PowerLogix G4 550 with 1 GB RAM. Booting from 36 GB Seagate SCSI running off original OEM Adaptec 2940U2B card. Epson 1640XL w/ onboard Firewire card. Photoshop CS with SilverFast as Plug-in.
