Something is wrong, i just purchased a new dual g5, with 2 gigs or ram runing panther and photoshopCS. and it keeps crashing, about an hour after i start using it, i will be performing an action and crash, changing between layers- crash. there must be a solution to this, i appreciate any advice on this topic.

thank you

RAM would be my first suspect unless you added something:

BAD BLOCKS second.
[Me] I would MELTDOWN (ZeroWrite) for warranty repair (and let them tell me why it doesn't work):

Though a SPARE USER may help (if the problem is in your user):

Further — on a previously solid Mac — purging/reinstalling Photoshop (and reading the linked Adobe techdocs/6712.htm, paragraph two on my link) may also provide insight to nailing the problem...

Haxies

I've got a G5 2ghz duelly and it's perfect, with 2.5 gig of after market and apple ram. As Buko says, do you have any fruitly little haxies installed?

You keep saying that because you want to make us jealous. And FWIW I am.
