Not responding

Hi Group, I'm having a problem with CS1 crashing as it loads. It gets about
half loaded and then the pallets, toolbar, etc. turn white and it's "not
responding." I've dumped the prefs, reinstalled the program, used system
restore, run all my spyware programs, scanned for viruses and cant seem to
find anything that could be causing this. It even does the same thing in
safe mode.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

I'm on Mac. This worked for me. Thanks, Hillard.

Re: not responding

sorry to hear that, bob, I wasn't paying attention too, but renaming the folder
does it too, I guess, and you still would have all your old files...
Greetings, Alex

Sounds like you have a corrupt font somewhere on your computer.

Re: not responding

Thanks Alex, that did it. I found that all the actions I created are gone. I
guess I need to back up the prefs file next time.

Re: not responding

I had this once - I found the answer in the Adobe PS forum and I quote:
"Try deleting ALL the files in the document and
Settings~usernameApplication DataAdobePhotoshop9.0Adobe Photoshop
CS2 Settings folder"
I suppose this also holds for CS1 ;) Replace 9.0 by 8.0 I think!

Re: not responding

Could be a bad font. Install TweakUI and run the font repair option. Or
move any exotic fonts you may have from the font folder to another folder
and see if that fixes the problem. If it does, move your fonts back half at
a time until you narrow it down to the offending font.
Good luck - maybe someone else will have some ideas.

Thanks Mike,
I updated my video driver, then went into VGA. Updated directX. I looked at
the event log, not sure what I'm looking for, though. My games run fine. I
noticed that Photoshop always hangs when loading "global text resources."
Not sure if that's a clue or not. Thanks again.

This is very likely to be a video driver problem.
1- Update the video driver.
2- Remove the video driver and run everything in VGA mode.
3- Replace the video card.
Could also be memory, so run a memory diagnostic.
Assuming you're Windows:
1- Re-install and/or update DirectX
2- Check the system event log
3- Run other programs that exercise video and memory, such as a demo version
of a video game.
