Hey all,
I am running a AMDK71000mhz, 800mb RAM, Windows 2000 and have been noticing of late photoshop 7.0 is very delayish. Thought it may have been windows holding things up, but after a clean reinstall of windows Photoshop still seems to be very slow. I am waiting sometimes up to a minute or two while I wait for 100k image windows to become active (when I have a few images open on screen/clicking between image windows)
Now I have 80% as my maximum available ram for photoshop (697MB) and have tried various scratch disk settings, at present I have a drive (not containing photoshop) with 8GIG free as my scratch disk.
I suspected that my CPU might be on the way out, but then if that was the case I would have other programs behaving in a similar fashion, which is not the case.
If anyone has any other suggestions or advice on how to fix this problem, would be much appreciated.
PS( I have updated with 7.0.1 patch.)
