If you are using NikonScan 3.1.1 with LS 8000 and MAC.
1. Turn of virtuell memory
2.
Allocate at least 600Mb to the software alone.
If you using Photoshop plugin, let Photoshop have at least 800Mb memory
3.
To allocate more memory = go to Nikonscan folder, select NikonScan with
your cursior so its turn aktivated, dont start Nikonscan.Go to Arkiv or
(File in Englisch) next right to the Apple and go down to SHOW INFO. Here
you can select memory and wright how much memory NikonScan shall have, in
your case at least 600Mb Do the same procedure with Photoshop
