Photoshop CS2 Sluggish/lagging while working?
Hmm.. love the new features so far. I was playing with my new copy of Photoshop CS2 last night and while experimenting with some techniques, I noticed it was slow just using the marquee tool, or text tool sometimes. HAs anyone else experienced this lag or sluggish performance? I am on a P4 3.06 Ghz machine with 2 GIG of RAM… I would assume I should not have any problems. I changed my srcatch disk to a different drive as well. Any suggestions?

My experience on my dual proc 2.6Ghz P4 has seen speed improvements. I do use 80% of the RAM for Photoshop. What setting do you use on that? HTH

Hello,
I did some sluething and figured out it was my mcaffee virus scan that would use the “MCshield.exe” process to jump my PC to 100% usage everytime I would try using a tool in CS2. I disabled it and Photoshop works fine. It was a wierd problem; I may have a bad install of Mcafee; or I need to get rid of it altogether. First time it messed with a program I use.
