I have been using Photoshop CS2 for a few days, and I love everything about it except for this one annoyance…
It’s quite simple, really. The first image that is opened after starting PS, nomatter the extension and nomatter the size, causes the program to hang for about a minute before it finally opens. Every subsequent image loads quickly after that. If I close PS and reopen it, the first image to be opened during that session takes a minute to load as well.
Any idea what is causing this problem? Thanks in advance!

Windows XP Pro SP2
AthlonXP 2500+

60gb Western Digital 5200 RPM HD (install volume, secondary PS scratch) 80gb Maxtor 7200 RPM HD (primary PS scratch)
