    ok before we start if this is in the wrong place please lock it :>


    My photoshop is screwed up ><

    you currently have adobe photoshop's primary scratch and windows primary paging file on the same volume which can result in reduced performance. It is recommended that you set adobe photoshop's primart scratch volume to be on a different volume. preferably on a different physical drive.

    not a clue what that means can someone please help me?

    Thank you in advance :>

    Maybe you have too many programs running.

    nah, it isnt a problem.
    just that if you would have adobe photoshop's primary scratch and windows primary paging file on two different harddrives it would work faster.

    do you have two parititions or even better several hard drvies?
    if no... forget it...

    if yes
    go to Preferences/scratch disks and set yer primary to something else then C:/ and -if you have a third drive/partition- yer secundary to yet another drive.
    Photoshop will perform faster.

    your photoshop isnt buggered, its just looking out for you.

    If all goes wrong refformat your pc and reinstall XP. i know it's sad, but it's something that we all do once.
