Have you tried setting a different SCSI number for the scanner. At the back
of the scanner trun the SCSI number to a different setting.

I have a Astra 1220S with a G3 and it conflicted with the HD, until I
changed the SCSI numbers.

Launching VISTA-SCAN should them auto. mount the scanner.

Hope this helps
