When I press any button on the keyboard (including CapsLock and Win, but excluding Alt, Ctrl, Shift buttons) Photoshop starts tensely working with my hard disk. It continues all the time I hold the button and it finishes only after a second since I release it.
* I found this behaviour on Windows Vista only.
* Resource Monitor shows that photoshop.exe process reads the disk with about 500MB/min during button press. What is it trying to find?
* It happens even if no one window is opened.
* Performance settings (cache level, RAM, scratch disks settings) don’t influence this behaviour.
It makes some operation noticeable slower, for example, Space+drag works slower than Hand tool selected on Tool panel with the mouse.
It’s noisy, I heard this disk sound on XP only if the system has no resources dramatically.
My system: Core2Duo, 2GB of memory, Nvidia 8600, 160GB disk (Vista performance rating is 5.2).
How can I fix it?
