Maybe bad handling? Otherwise it's impossible as no part of the Scanner,
except for the film holders, are directly in touch with the film.

NikonScan crashes on a dual processor machine (PC) - unless the machine is
booted in single processor mode... A lot of people say that it is stable on
a single processor machine....
But, keep in mind that most scanner software do crash... Vuescan - by my
experience - is among the most stable....
