suggested memory size. (Select the Photoshop 5.0 LE
desktop icon, then select File, Get Info.)
2. Turn Virtual memory OFF. (From the Apple icon, select
Control Panel, Memory.)
3. Assign a scratch disk. (Start Photoshop 5.0 LE, then select
File, Preferences, Plug-ins & Scratch Disks.)
4. Restart your Macintosh.
See the electronic Photoshop 5.0 LE manual on your
Photoshop 5.0 LE CD-ROM for detailed information.
