Sluggish in what way? Mine is also but only when opening a file or creating a new one it takes forever. Then I found this…

Seems as though CS3 doesn’t like networked printers. Once I changed this, now its pretty fast. Just a pain to remember to switch to the right printer before hand.

Probably OT but I can’t seem to find other places to ask where

most of you all have the same PC environment as I do.

 

Photoshop is terribly sluggish on my Vista x64, 4GB RAM PC.

Specially when it comes to working on video captions.

Is it that I have too many fonts installed, approx 4400 of them!

I kind of suspect it’s the graphics card (nVidia 3450) because

I’ve heard of difference in performance in Matrox cards and nvidia cards

when it comes to working in 2D stuff. Any hidden tweaks for the graphics card

that might make this even a tad fast?

 

Anybody experience similar, strange behavior?

Any comments greatly appreciated. Offlist?

Thanks a bunch all!
