Jeg fandt lige følgende:
Macintosh G4 Freezes When You Edit Images in Photoshop 5.5 or Later
Issue
When you edit an image in Adobe Photoshop 5.5 or later, the
Macintosh freezes.
Details
You are running Mac OS 9.1 on an Apple Power Macintosh G4 with an
nVIDIA GeForce 2 or 3 graphics processing unit (GPU).
Solutions
Do one of the following:
Solution 1
Update to version 2.1.1 of the GeForce Graphics Card software. You
can download the update from Apple's Web site at
www.apple.com/support/.
Solution 2
Disable the DirectCursors plug-in:
Note: If you disable the DirectCursors plug-in, you won't be able
to have brush sizes over 16 pixels, and some cursors, such as the
lasso tool, might be difficult to see against middle gray areas if
the display is set to thousands or millions of colors.
1. Quit Photoshop.
2. Locate the DirectCursors folder in the Photoshop [version]:
Plug-Ins: Adobe Photoshop Only: Extensions folder.
3. Add a tilde character (~) to the beginning of the DirectCursors
folder name (for example, "~DirectCursors").
4. Restart Photoshop.
Solution 3
Disable the nVIDIA System extensions in the System folder, and
restart the Macintosh. For a list of nVIDIA System extensions, see
your nVIDIA documentation.
Additional Information
Version 2.1 of the nVIDIA drivers that come with the nVIDIA GeForce
2 or 3 GPU conflict with the DirectCursors plug-in in Mac OS 9. (To
determine the version of the nVIDIA driver, select the nVIDIA
extension in the System: Extensions folder, and choose File > Get
Info.)
The DirectCursors plug-in, enabled by default in Photoshop 6.0,
modifies how the Macintosh draws some cursors. For painting tools,
it enables the display of brush cursors larger than 16 pixels in
diameter. It also improves the display of some cursors, such as the
lasso tool, to make them easier to see when moving over middle gray
areas if the monitor is set to either thousands or millions of
colors.
Disabling the nVIDIA System extensions disables the drivers that
conflict with the DirectCursors plug-in in Mac OS 9.1.
Noget tyder på at det snildt kan være en konflikt med dit
grafikkort også. Har du overvejet at prøve med en anden type
grafikkort?
