Using PSE2 this happens about 60% of the time. I select save as and the trouble begins when the save dialog appears. The disk drive starts going bonkers and it won’t stop, PSE2 (and the everything on WinXP Pro) slow down to almost nothing. When I call up the task manager to stop PSE2 the disk keeps on churning. The list of running processes shows PSE2 even when the task is ended. PSE2 process keeps chewing up more memory; 20MB, then 80MB, then 100MB, up to about 320MB. Killing the process reduces the memory used, but it starts climbing up again and the disk is STILL churning away. With persistence I can kill all the threads, but it ain’t easy.
I’ve been using PSE2 for about 2 months before this started. Since then I uninstalled it and re installed it. I make it the only app running. It happens for any file format to save. I don’t have a clue what’s happening. Anybody seen this happen before?
