dont even know where to start. ive got a B&W G3 400 running 9.2.2 for scanning on a umax Astra net e5470 usb scanner. i've tried everything: plugging into hun or directly into the mac, re-install manny diff versions of umax crapware, zap pram, rebuild desktop, changed usb cables...end result 90% it will not work. either it cant find scanner, or it starts to scan (via photoshop) then crashes/hangs. the odd thing is that every once and again it will work - maybe 10% of the time. THIS IS INSANE.

I know its not the port because other devices work (even other scanners silly artek no power scanner)

well,,, any thoughts?? i've stumped the tech suport guy through numerous e-mails.

thanks in advance
