I have a large PSD file, 100MB with several layers. CS3 crashes when I try to Save As JPEG. I am able to save as tiff.
When I open the tiff and try to save it as JPEG, it also crashes.
Any ideas?

The Jpeg format does not support layers.
Jpeg should only ever be used when saving a file for it's final destination - say for the web, email, or on screen viewing. Use a lossless format such as TIFF or PSD for all "work in progress".

Chris,
Save As JPEG is my final step. In previous versions, PS would flatten the image and provide a message it was doing so then save as JPEG. It does the same with CS3, some times. It's definitely a bug. But you've given me an idea for a work-around.
Thanks.
