When I use the image processor in PSCS4 to process a large number of raw files using ACR 5.1 (Nikon D3 NEFs), I consistently receive an error message after about 10-11 files have been processed that the instruction at 0x696336ab tried to read memory at 0x6C (or thereabouts) and the memory could not be read. I am saving as JPEGs with the color space set to sRGB.

I de-installed and reinstalled PSCS4, but the error persists. The image processor worked fine with PSCS3. A workaround that solves the problem is to process the files as a batch using a simple action to accomplish the task.

I am running Windows XP Pro with a dual Xeon processor and 2G of error correcting memory.

Hmm.. I was getting a similar error with CS3 and was very happy to find that it appeared to be cured in CS4. The CS3 issue would appear if I tried to process more then 100 NEFs. My workaround was to do them in smaller batches (60-75). Perhaps you might try reducing the memory alotted to PS or run it without any other apps running?

In CS3 I was able to process 100 or more files at once, but in CS4 the attempted processing of 50 files terminates with the error after 10 files have been processed. I had no other apps running and 60% of memory was reserved for PS, the same as with PS3. Efficiency did not drop below 100%.
