I have installed my new CS3 Web Design Professional suite on three computers now. At first I actually thought I needed an upgrade and bought a new computer. I can't pinpoint if there is anything in particular that causes this error message and subsequent shutdown of Photoshop--a window pops up says "Photoshop has stopped working and will shutdown". It flashes rather quickly and I don't have a chance to do anything, Photoshop just disappears. Of course, I always lose the work. And it generally happens after working on several files for a while. Once it happens though, it will tend to shutdown more often until I reboot my system.

Anyway, this has been an issue on three of my computers, two of which are brand new! Has anyone else had this seemingly generic problem with Photoshop CS3? I don't think it's necessarily related to Vista because the first computer I installed it on (with same crash message) was Windows XP Pro. All computers have 2G ram.

I NEED ADVICE!!!!!
