I’m running Mac OSX 10.4.9 on a G4 iBook, 1.42 GHz and 1 GB ram. I have been using CS just fine until recently. I had some problems with my HD, so I ended up saving the contents to an external drive and reformatting the HD.

Since then, I haven’t been able to get CS to launch. It begins to launch and then I get a message "Photoshop CS has unexpectedly quit", and I can send a report to Apple.

I’ve reinstalled PSCS, deleted PSCS and reinstalled it and deleted the entire Creative Suit and reinstalled. I’ve repaired permissions, run fsck -fy, and Disk Warrior.

The other elements of the Creative Suite seem to be working fine, but Photoshop still crashes when I try to open it.

Any ideas?

Yes. Delete the Prefs file in the Finder, or simply hold down Cmd-Option on launch.
