CS3 Crashes when opening more than one file

Fresh install of CS3 premium upgrade from CS2.
Windows XP Pro

If I try to open more than one file at a time CS3 crashes with the following message: "Adobe Photoshop CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

Deleting preferences makes no difference.
CS2 never crashed.

make sure your default system printer is not a network printer.

I have the same problem. Why would the default printer make any difference??? I will try this though.

That dit it! Thanks!

Since it was an XP reinstall, no default printer was set and it picked one that was on the network.

weird, but it seems to work. <shrug> :)

I downloaded the trial version of CS3 yesterday. I couldn't open any file, CS3 would shut down. After install and uninstall three times, this is the cure. With a twist make sure the printer is plugged in to your computer.

I face a problem with Photoshop CS3 extended too.. It just refuses to open any files and nothing functions. And it ahppens every now and then.
