Horizontal and vertical banding occurs in thin lines of solid colors randomly within the image.

Working on a photoshop image. Horizontal and vertical banding occurs in thin lines of solid colors randomly within the image.

They can be repainted out, but with any zoom or tool action more seem to appear.

They exist even after saving and restarting.

Windows XP 64 bit $GB Ram

As far as I know (from reading here) Xp64 is not supported by any version of Photoshop... which means you may get it to work, or you may not

Make sure your video card device driver is updated

Run Photoshop in compatibility mode

Is it this particular image or all images?
Does it print that way?
If it is a raw image does it look that way when first opened or only after processed/filtered?
BTW pre-CS4 Photoshop runs fine on WinXP64. Just about nothing else does, however.

If you zoom in and they go away, it's probably the video card.

If you zoom in and out and they change, it's probably bad RAM.

If the image looks fine, you save it, then reload it and it's corrupted - then it's probably the hard disk.

I had a similar thing happen to me with a bad stick of ram...really annoying..

Back up all your images and run XP's memory test - that should help you confirm/eliminate that as a cause.
