Healing patch tool freezes my PC

[lzepeda]

Hello,
I have learned many things here. Now it is my turn to ask for assistance.
The healing patch tool freezes the PS program and I have to ctrl+alt+del to
get going again. When I restart PS it sometimes goes away sometimes not. I
have noticed that the lil lasso type tool that you're supposed to encase the
part you're fixing has a lil box at the very end of it. Whenever I see this
thats it for the patch tool. Is this a fault with a quick fix or am I doing
something wrong. It does not always happen so I don't know whats going on.
Thanks for any and all help. Oh Im using PS7 on a Windows XP

I would check the computer memory. How much memory is on your computer? You
may want to install more memory. Also, what about the scratch disc? Is there
room on the HD? Is your HD defragmented regularly?
