Hi,
I’ve currently trying to fix photoshop on my company computer and I can’t seem to get it to work. I’ve tried the following:
1. uninstall/delete files/reinstall
2. clear prefetch files
3. scan for viruses and registry errors
4. run as admin, run on different account, run in compatibility mode

My Computer is a Dell XPS1530 with 8600m GT. Photoshop worked fine for quite sometime and now it crashes with the following error after reaching "Building color conversion Tables"

Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: Photoshop.exe
Application Version: 11.0.0.0
Application Timestamp: 48d3882e
Fault Module Name: kernel32.dll
Fault Module Version: 6.0.6001.18000
Fault Module Timestamp: 4791a76d
Exception Code: c0000005
Exception Offset: 000254d8
OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.256.1
Locale ID: 1033
Additional Information 1: 48a4
Additional Information 2: 25d86d7052aea144c126756ba05fe7f4 Additional Information 3: 33ef
Additional Information 4: cb36b8e1128214d6ae58aa905338119c

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
John

uhm thats for pre-release/ beta versions. This is a new pc and the software was installed directly from disc.

As soon as you have attempted an install there is a chance that residues of an aborted attempt will remain on the hard drive, hence the recommendation of the clean script.

Tried it. No luck there. Photoshop still crashes at "building color conversion tables"
