Photoshop :: Graphics Card / Computer Slow Down /...
Jul 29, 2009my computer randomly blue screened and has done a few times since. All error codes and recent activity suggested a faulty driver recently installed. The newest thing i have installed was my Intuos 4 new drivers, but i found that removing them made no difference. Looking through my windows event log files, i found that my graphics card drivers had ran into some erros not long ago, so i updated my drivers (NVidia 9800GT (512MB vm)). I had a blue screen today since updating them, directly reffering to my graphics tablet drivers again, but this time the new ones.Also, i have noticed that explorer seems slower now, and programs close fast-ish still, but they close from top to bottom as if something crashed instead, and fourced them to close. I also am getting much more distortion on my desktop than usual, such as remains of windows previously open, or the dashed box that shows when you click and drag on the desktop staying there. A simple refresh gets rid of it, but i don't know if it is linked.

View 6 Replies View RelatedPremiere Pro :: Choppy Slow Playback On High End Computer
Mar 11, 2014A few months back, I spent a bucket of gold on upgrading to a new high end computer.
The specs:
Windows 8.1
i7-4770k 3.50GHz
32gb RAM
GeForce GTX 780
SSD Harddrive as main
2 extra harddrives
None of them are in RAID though.
But here's my problem. In the beginning, editing in After Effects CC and Premiere CC was smooth as butter.However, lately, especially Premiere has started giving me issues.
At the moment, I'm editing to 1080p footage, in h.264 format. There's a few effects on it, such as an overlay 720p footage, using Red Giant Looks twice (on one adjustment layer, and on the footage itself), and some other minor stuff like curves and such.
The effects don't seem to matter much though. Even if I play back the footage with no effects at all, playback is still choppy.
I have playback set to 25% size, and 1/4 resolution, and I still only get what I would guess is around 5-10 frames per second. Sometimes it drops completely, down to just 1 or 2 frames per second. Heck, at times it just doesn't update at all for a few seconds.
When I check my CPU usage, everything is fine. It hasn't reached max at all. RAM is still PLENTY (usually around 20gb left), and it seems that both harddrives (Premiere is running on the SSD and the files used are on another harddrive) aren't maxed out either in capacity.
This isn't JUST Premiere, as I said, I've seen a decline in After Effects performance as well.
I've attached 3 screenshots, of my CPU usages, and the 2 harddrives, showing a few minutes playback in Premiere.
CPU Usage:
SSD drive:
Secondary drive:
As you can see, apart from a few spikes here and there, none of them seem to be having issues with capping out. RAM is sitting at a steady 30% usage.
AutoCAD 2010 :: Autodesk Content Service Makes Computer Unusable?
Jun 16, 2011Autodesk Content Service makes my computer so slow that it is unusable. I would like to know what this program does and whether I need it or not to run my student programs.
I removed the program using windows uninstall and my computer instantly began to respond again. Running Windows 7 Pro, 1 T 7200 rpm hard drive, 8 gb memory, quad core 775 chip. Nvidia video w/ 1gb memory.
This computer is lightning fast, no jitter or hanging in revit or auto cad until content services was running.
Photoshop :: CS4 Very Slow
Oct 23, 2008I am getting lots of problems with CS4, some of which have been covered in separate topics on this forum. In the main, it seems to me that there is a real problem with CS4 processing relatively small amounts of data. The difficulties I am experiencing are:
1. Text tool very slow. Just typing a few letters sees my CPU usage shoot to 50%. There is a lag of about a second between typing the letters and their appearance on the screen.
2. Pen tool very slow with significant lag when using the mouse and CPU again shoots to 50%, even for a short line. If I use the tablet (Trust) it sometimes works, but suffers the same lag as the mouse when it does. Most of the time, though, I just get a faint straight line between the start and end point. This morning I got the same straight line symptom on the mouse!
3. Screen redraw can be painfully slow and blocky, but this fault is really sporadic
4. There is no apparent difference whether I have GPU active or not. However, I have just had a strange message. When GPU was disabled I restarted CS4 and got the message that there was a problem with the display driver, and PS was therefore disabling GPU enhancements! After that, the pen worked fine, and the mouse too, but then the mouse started losing curves.
I experience none of these problems when I run CS.
My video card driver is up to date. The trust tablet driver is the latest, but I really do not think this is the issue, as the drawing problem also affects the mouse.

Photoshop :: PSD CS4 Slow
Jun 29, 2009I run Intel core 2 Quad 2.4 o.c to 3.3, 8GB 1066DDR2 RAM, 512MG NVidia 8800GT, 150GB 10,000RPM WD HDD Windows Vista Ultimate x64. My worst inversion was this pice of crap photoshop CS4. I used to open up to 400 10.3MegaPixel photos with CS2. CS4 drags down just with 100. Won't let me open more than 200. Too bad, come on desingers. I challenge to run my PC against yours. I've tried to configure CS4 to work the way I need it but unfortunatelly I have to wait until "ADOBE" software engineers come up with a new version so I can spend more money on their so famously pirated software to fix the bugs they sold on the previous version. Close to imposible to work with two screens working with different resolution. Photoshop stops functioning everytime an image changes from the main monitor to a secondary monitor. The old friendly Photoshop CS2 allows me to bring anything accross either screen with a continous display of the image. I used to be a Photoshop fan unfortunatelly CS4 lowered my espectations down to about 5%. Might be looking forward to try the competition for a much lower price.

View 6 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: CS6 Very Slow Printing
Aug 24, 2012I have two systems. The first a windows 7 32 bit quad core with 8 gigs ram cs4 is installed on this sytem. Time to print a standard job on an epson 4800 (which includes hitting print, selecting options for the printer and then being able to close the file and open another) less than a minute.
Recently installed cs6 on new windows 7 x64 intel core i7 system with 12 gigs ram. I have used both cs4 and cs5 on this newer system. Both ran the same file in under a minute to print as outlined above. Once I installed cs6 however the print time ( as defined above) for the same file above has now gone to 22+ minutes. on cs6, 18+ minutes on cs5 and approx the same for cs4 (all versions of CS are 64 bit on this system)
If there isn't an update to cs6 soon, I presume I will have to de-activate cs6, cs5 and cs4 and then re-install cs4 and cs5 to take advantage of my faster system is that correct?

View 4 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: CC Slow To Zoom
Oct 19, 2013Recently was forced to switch back to Win 7 from OSX after many years. I have the lastest PS CC on the Win 7 machine with 8 gb of RAM installed and an i5 processor. I haven't used PS on Windows since CS5 maybe CS4.
Admittedly this is not the fastest or best equipped computer in the world but then I am only doing web design at 72 dpi. I do use allot of layers though but that is nothing new.
Whenever I click to zoom in or out the disc starts thrashing and there is a long delay resulting in nothing happening. I have to click to zoom a second or even third time before I can get it to work.
As an example I will use a file that has allot of layers but is 14.1 mb on disc it is 1.3 gb when open. On a Macbook Pro 2011 with 4 gb of RAM I have no issues with zooming with open GL on or off. The Win 7 machine, same file, has significant zooming issues.
I have only one disc in both machines. The Win 7 machine has Mcaffee anti-virus on it but no disc encription. The mac does not have anti-virus installed. I am quite willing to either increase the RAM in the Win 7 machine or get another HD to use as the scratch disc but I don't want to push my boss to make a purchase unless I am sure it will solve the issue and I am not convinced it will.
Would buying hardware solve the issue or would adjusting the preferences somehow solve it. My preferences for performance on both machines are the standard settings PS ships with.

Photoshop :: CS6 Won't Launch And When It Does Its Really Slow
Aug 31, 2013my copy of Photoshop CS6 sometimes won't launch and when it does manage to launch fully, it's really slow. I mean ridiculously slow. The only times when I can get it to run even remotely quick is if I shut down my computer, and then restart it and then start up Photoshop CS6 as the first program. Even then it slows down after a while. (And I only have a firefox browser open usually, never more than a couple of tabs at once, so it's not a bandwidth issue)
Here are my comp specs:
Samsung
Processor:
AMD A6-3420M APU with
Radeon (Tm) HD graphics 1.50 ghz
Installed Memory (RAM) - 4.00 (3.48 usable)
64 Bit operating System running on Windows 7 home premium, service pack 1
I also did just recently install the new update Adobe had for Photoshop, so that's up to date.
Photoshop :: CS6 - Very Slow Startup?
Jul 2, 2012I've just applied the latest update, but am experiencing very slow image loading times between LR 4.1 and CS6 Extended edition. I am using an iMac 27 2.8Ghz with 8Gig of System Ram, over 300Gig of HDD free space.
Upon selecting edit-in CS6 with an image in LR 4.1, CS6 starts up with a long splash screen, loads, then I get a spinning grey circle, then CS6 loads on the desktop, then I get a colored spinning circle, before my image finally appears.
I have performance set to an external scratch disk witih 624G of free space, 5644 MB of memory usage at 74%, HS at 30 CL at 7 CTS at 1028K
I have CS5 still installed and it's load times are about twice as fast as CS 6

View 3 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Nudging Very Slow In CS6?
Sep 11, 2012i have seen quite a few threads but no solutions yet that work for this problem. my documents tend to have quite a few of layers, using very frequently shapes with layer effects. up to a certain amount of those the app is very responsive, and then once i hit a certain level it gets very slow. strange just moving a vector shape using the direct selection tool is just fine. the regular nudging of a group or a layer brings up the progress indicator dialog.
so far i have tried:
- turn off layer previews (did improve things a tiny bit, but still unusuable with larger layer count)
- changed performance settings (cache level:2 or 4, and tile size 128k) (also no effect)
the only thing that seems to work is to break the file apart into seveal ones, which will have less layers, but that's not really a long-term workable solution for me, as i use layer comps and need a more global overview.

May 21, 2013Photoshop CS6 behaves slow, very slow. Even with no document open, right after launch it reacts with delay on any mouseclick, sometimes it takes more than 20 seconds before a menu pops open after clicking. Painting paintbrushes are impossible slow.Basically any action is dragged.Its impossible to work like this. With all previous versions of PS i never encountered this.Things i tried :
- turned off gpu acceleration (i read that gpu can cause performance issues, some ppl solved slowness by turning it off)
- updated latest nvidia drivers
- reinstalled photoshop
- tried to inspect photoshop processes with Process Hacker, even when at 5% cpu it runs extremely slow
specs :

Photoshop :: Actions Are Really Slow
Oct 24, 2012I'm not of PS 6 yet but PS 5 (12.0.4) has been working fine on my laptop for years. Just a few days ago the actions got REALLY slow. Actions that are, say, 10 steps used to be completed in a few seconds. Now, it takes a few seconds for each step. Another weird thing that has occured is when I make a new channel and choose a Pantone color. After picking the color, say yellow 106, the naming field will show 'Alpha 1' unhighlighted instead of 'PANTONE 106 C' highlighted. But when I click OK it says 'PANTONE 106 C' in the channels palette.

Oct 15, 2008I downloaded successfully, installed CS4, registered and it is activated. My only problem is it takes a LONG time for CS4 to open. From the time you double click the icon, it seems like it takes forever before the blue box pops up, then it takes longer than CS3 to get to the open program. As far as I can tell, I have the same settings for both programs but CS3 beats it hands down for speed to open. I am running 3 gb of memory, an Intel Quad 4 processor, and lots of disk space.
