Hey guys... I need help bad! I am working on this project.
I cleaned all the drivers on my graphics card and reinstalled them. For some reason I think it might be the graphics card but Im not sure anymore.
I am working with AutoCAD and creating PDF files that are 24" x 36".
When I go to Photoshop CS2 and open them up the settings are at 72 resolution and 8 bit color which is horrible. So I bump it to 16 bit and resolution at 300. Everytime I try these settings it crashes this system. With similar applications on my laptop... it works perfecftly fine with no hesistation. Windows is telling me its a driver issue but thats all I am getting. Help me please!!!!!!!
My System:
AMD X2 4400+ Stock Cooling
DFI nF4 Ultra-D Bios 623-3
VisonTek ATi X850XT Xtasy
WD 74GB Raptor in SATA
Maxtor 300GB in SATA/150
2GB Kingston 3200 Dual Channel 400MHZ
OCZ Powerstream PSU
depending on the file type you are desiring try just opening the file in acrobat and use "save as" to save it as an image file (jpg tif etc and so forth) then open it in photoshop... ortherwise try putting it into illustrator and saving it as a psd etc from there.
it might help to know what these files are (plans, etc) to allow people to give some more specific advice

dont set it to 16 bit, keep it at 8 bit but bumb the resolution to like 300 or 400, should be fine
Umm, you could just use your laptop - plus its a pretty good reason to head home at 3pm too. Sorry boss, gotta convert those files...
your computer is fast enough.
yes you just need to do it 300 dpi and 8 bit
it might look crappy, but once you put a layer of white below your drawing, it should be fine
