Please.
I’ve looked over the two threads on sluggish (mine is really very slow vs. PS7.01, especially in painting the screen) CS2. I’ve tried to do everything suggested — all to no help. Can anyone suggest something more (short of a new machine)? Would a faster/bigger video card help? Many thanks in advance.
What I’ve done: (a) defrag disks (b) reset preferences (c) adjusted PS memory (d) set win paging to 4Gb [2xinstalled memory) (e) latest video card driver (f) hide info pallate.
My machine has four printers drivers: HP LJ1000, Canon i960, 2 virtual drivers. It also has 2 TWAIN drivers.
PS gives the following system info:
Adobe Photoshop Version: 9.0 (9.0×196)
