Computer Problem - Keeps restarting when i go to save

[Hamlet]

Hi - i am having a pretty horrible problem with my comp - almost everytime i go to save in photoshop, it reboots my computer (i have tried it on both versions of photoshop i have, so i dont think it is the program.. it also occured when i tried to start flash).

Does anyone know what might be causing this? If someone does help me fix this (without formatting or something else as drastic) i would gladly design something for you (logo or 2 banner ads or something similar).

My icq is 96653071 or just respond below

Thanks in advance.

some kind of disk error.... a lot of times if u try to write to a hard drive and the pc encounters an error, itll reboot...

id suggest getting ur hard drive checked, or just buying a new one asap.

personal experience/opinion

I am able to save other files in photoshop (bigger and smaller) but in this case and a few other projects it has been doing this, like i said, almost everytime. Could a disk error be effecting only these certian files?

you might try running scandisk.. 1st power it down and leave it off for 3 or 4 min.'s or unplug the power cord for about 1 min. I don't need any design work so if it works.. good luck
