I have recently upgraded to XP. (Pentium 3, 500+RAM, 433 speed). Installation of either PS 6 or 7.0, was completed, without problem. When launching either Photoshop or Illustrator, I received an error message telling me that Photoshop and Windows were attempting to write to the same scratch file, and that they recommended that I move the program(?) or the scratch file to another physical disc.
I have googled, and searched the Microsoft and Adobe datebases; nothing seems to be specific to this problem. There was mention that freezing of Adobe programs would point to hardware problems such as corrupt memory chips. I doubt this since I have tried to load the program on a friend’s computer, and received the same message. Recently, due to a pesky worm I reformatted the hard drive: switching from FAT 32 to NTSF. At first I thought that this might be the problem, but I know people that are running PS 7 on NTSF. This is all the information I have, if someone could point me in the right direction….. Thanks PS: I’m not sure if this means anything, but: In reviewing the event log all of the the Adobe programs except"Reader" are giving the same error address.
