Got the same error with a Syquest on the Adaptec 1542C (with 
486DX33/ISA/VL Motherboard)

Someone pointed out to me that the problem could be the Syquest which 
begins to go into powersaving-mode when you don't access it for some
time. Don't know if he's right, I don't use the Syquest very often :-(.
