I am running windows XP. I have over 30 GB of hard drive available. I have 512 MB ram currently. The computer is a Sony Vaio with a pentium 4 cpu 2.00 ghz. Trying to start Photoshop 7.0, the program loads up to the point where it tries to load the brushes. It then just stops. I have uninstalled the program. Shut down the system. Restarted and reinstalled the program. I had the same results. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Mike
