scratch disks

This isnt a graphic problem just a large pain in the a*s, ive had photoshop 7 for bloody ages its been fine but over the past month or so everytime i open a file in photoshop in shows the same error message , does anybody know why this is or maybe a solution to the problem.

Any help would be brilliant, Thank you.

How big is your hard drive?? Its probably pretty full (right click on c: icon in my computer...select properties)....thats why that message is coming up. Do you have another hard drive or partition you could use as a scratch disk? Pop into the photoshop Preference Dialog and select "Plugins and Scratch Disks" and see what you can change in there.

That basically means that Photoshop is using up so much memory that it has run out.

Basically your hardware space is running pretty.

Solutions are either cleaning up (ugh!) your current HDD, or just get a second one. Some 2-5GB HDD is pretty damn cheap now, and it's pretty easy to install. Then just open PS and set it's preferences accordingly.

Yeah, unfortunately I get that error message too often because I've got what, half a gig of memory left? And that's AFTER cleaning. :/
