OK, I know there’s been enough ‘why is PS slow’ questions asked and I don’t mean to bug, BUT …
I’m running PS CS, windows XP Pro … AMD Athlon XP 2200+ …. 1.66 GHz 1.00 GB of RAM.
Working with an 8 1/2" x 11" document, with only a few layers (4-5), sometimes moviing an object on a layer, or giving an effect, etc .. takes FOREVER. It’s very frustrating!
I just deleted many fonts that I don’t need/use… running in the lower right taskbar is: Panda antivirus, volume, and safely remove hardware.
Under msconfig: almost all things are checked, but I’m not sure what’s safe to uncheck and what is. Most of the checked items are listed as: HKIM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version.
Defragged about 4 days ago … ran anti-virus yesterday. Anything else you need to know …. ask.
Everything is horribly slow and it wasn’t like this always, all though I have to admit that I don’t remember when it started. It’s been most recent that it’s been the worse.
Any help is welcomed. 🙂
Thanks!
