For the past few months CS3 has been working great. Fast, responsive and no crashes at all. Last night I tried out my all in one printer/scanner/copier, an HP PSC1210, with CS3. I wanted to scan something and I went to import>PSC 1210 and the printers own scanning program popped up like it should. Today I open CS3 and as soon as I hit either Ctrl+O or actually go to File>Open CS3 freezes. I can drag and drop images and they open fine and so does everything else. It only freezes when trying to open something from within CS3.

Since this problem started after I used my scanner last night I’m pretty convinced thats whats causing this. I reset my preferences too but it still crashes. Any ideas? I don’t really want to uninstall/reinstall it again but it looks like I have no choice.

UPDATE:

OK, I had been using CS2 for a few minutes when I decided to try CS3 again just for the heck of it and now it works again. Whats going on?
