My Photoshop is screwed up. Keeps saying the 'Scratch Disks' are full when I try to do something. Is there any way to fix it?


Also, I was wondering if anyone knew how to re-format the harddrive. I have like, 63MB left. :S

To answer your second question right click the drive you want to reformat and then click "format"

Then its easy... Just do some backups first.

You need to burn all your files to a CD, put them on a pen drive or upload them somewhere on the web.

Norton Ghost is a great program which allows you to write backups of your data onto CDs:

EDIT: Just realised there isn't a trialware copy :S

You could, but it depends how much data you have on your hard drive. If you have alot, you're going to need an awful lot of disks to store all of the information on...

You mean I have to back-up all my programs? Can't I just reinstall?

Um.. Why don't you just try closing Photoshop and do a defrag, then restart your computer. I thought that the Scratch file is just Photoshop's cache file, like a page file.

"Disk Defragmenter", yeah?
I'll try that.

63MB? Pfft, you're lucky...I have less then that. Try a disk clean-up first to see if that can free a little bit.
