Long Time to Save

Post by Quofiend »

Anyone experienced PSP taking eons to save a file. It goes into (Not Responding) mode.
It is using about 10 to 15% CPU for a good 4 to 6 minutes before it all comes alive again likje nothing happened.
THis is with small 50K pics and larger 600dpi images. All held locally.
No disk whirring so it all seems to be a memory thing !!!
Vista Ultimate. Old machine but PSP has been running fine on this box for a while now (aside from startup times being slow).
I've been editing larger files regularly with no issues before.

Any ideas ?

This I can say I've not experienced on my Vista machine (laptop) or my old desktop running Win XP.

Just thought of something that will cause things to slow down. In the Preferences settings, for Organizer do you have Allow cataloging to complete after exiting the application? How about for the Undo, Limit undo/redo disk usage to____ ?
