Youre welcome

If you set up a scratch disk in the PS edit prefs you should not have to reselect it again as it should be saved with the prefs

About the numbers.I think one is the scratch disk size being used,and the other is the size of your image,but I might be wrong there

Limey generally 300dpi is all you need for scanning.What I do is scan at 600dpi and then reduce to 300 dpi in PS itself and then print at 1440 dpi it seems to work fine for me ,even though you are generally meant to scan at twice what you eventually want to print at ,but I dont have any desire to be working with 2880 dpi images thats for sure [confused] ,so I just use as I explained above.

This link also has about scanning and color setup
