We just installed a CanoScan N1240U on our iMac (original blue model) running Mac OS 8.6 and the system dumped the USB hub software! On top of this, any application we try to run freezes the machine! What do I do now? The Apple site was less than helpful. There's a truckload of work on the HDD that cannot be replaced - can anyone help?

A clean install will not delete your data files, but you'll have to reinstall your applications (unless you're savvy with moving control panels, extensions etc)
