I am trying to make a Matrix type of background and the text is giving me alot of errors.

First my System setup:

Dell Inspiron 8200
2.0 MGHz
30 Gig HD (29% free space)
1 Gig Memory
Photoshop CS

The file I am working on is:
8.5" x 11" @ 300 ppi

I fill the background layer in black and then make a text layer and fill it with some text (the text (arial font size 9) fills the size of the form)
The first text layer works fine but then when I make another text layer with a slightly larger text I get error messages.
Some of the errors are:

1) When I make a new layer and paste the text is no longer fills the same area of the screen and not all is pasted.
2) If I do get all the text in the layer and try to add a mask the plugins are no longer available (specifically render>clouds)
3) Once saved with 2 texture layers the second texture layer made has a triangle in the layers panel and is no longer able to be worked on without locking up the program.

I did try and make the texture layers in imageready however the font sizes in imageready do not match those in photoshop. I suspect this is a setting but cannot figure out where I could change it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can anyone at least point me to something that may help? I have looked through the knowledge base and did a search but no luck on this problem as of yet 🙁 I did download the new updates but no change at all.

BTW I see alot of people saying that PSCS never uses more then 40% cpu but I find this very very rare. No matter what I do it maxes out the cpu to 99% (be it typing, filters, etc…)

What error messages are you getting?

Filters won’t be available on a type layer unless you rasterize the type – that’s normal.
