I installed my new Epson 1640SU last night and started scanning with
Vuescan. It seemed to work great with negatives and transparencies. Then my
wife needed me to scan some line drawings for her. Since I hadn't installed
the Epson software yet, I decided to try Vuescan. It worked fine for
several scans, then Vuescan just locked up at the 99% scan complete point.
I had to reboot to clear it. When I resumed scanning, I was able to get
several scans again, then it again locked up. I tried turning on "Release
Memory" but that didn't help. By the way, if I killed Vuescan with the Task
Manager, I couldn't launch it again without rebooting. Here are the details:
