OK, I can deal with, sort of, the appalling slowness, mediocre performance, and bloat. But this one has me at a standstill…
I WAS using PS 7, WHICH WORKED FINE….
I upgraded to CS and suddenly I’m having a problem cropping. Here’s the situation… I have a 16 bit .psd file that is approximately 4.8 MB. I’ve done minimal basic operations on it and NOTHING with layers. I resized it for the screen by setting it to 72 ppi and 1122X768. NOW I need to crop it so its 1024X768.
When I TRY to do the crop I get the message:
"Could not complete your request because the scratch disks are full."
Which is pure, unadulterated excrement…
First, I only have 1 photo open. Efficiency SAYS I’m at 100%.
Second, I have 4 scratch disks specified. They have respectively, 61GB, 23GB, 17 GB, and 3GB of free space… Yes, GIGABYTES… And NONE of them is the disk on which Photoshop is installed.
The system has an AMD 2600+ cpu and 1GB of real memory. And 4GB of virtual memory. Running Windows 2000 Pro with SP4. Video is an ATI dual head board.
I have renamed the prefs.psp file and tried it without ANY scratch disks. I’ve tried it with everywhere from 1 to 4 scratch disks. I’ve tried different order for the disks.
NOTHING MAKES ANY DIFFERENCE. I can’t do a stinkin’ crop on a simple photograph with this *&^%$#@! new version.
I can’t find any information on this problem in google or newsgroups or any of the knowledge bases I’ve found. Has ANYBODY seen this problem? Or is this another one of those things where I have to nuke the installation and try again?
I HOPE somebody at Adobe actually reads these things and has a decent solution ’cause this is enough to get me back to the old version.
