Photoshop Gurus

I have 300+ fonts right now, but have literally 2-300 more that I'd like to use but cant since photoshop wont load if I have them installed on my pc:

P4 2.6CGHZ, 1Gig PC3500DDR, 74GB 10K RPM SATA Drive.

How can I get photoshop to load with more than 300 fonts installed?Everytime i try, photoshop crashes when reading "fonts".

just a suggestion. why don't you uninstall your photoshop first.. add your fonts. then install photoshop. hope that helps.

Crashing with 300 fonts sounds strange. But regardless,
it is not a good idea to have too many fonts intalled.

Use a font manager like:

http://members.ozemail.com.au/~scef/tft.html

Then you can easilly find, preview, install and uninstall fonts as needed.

Adobe products can become a little flaky if you simply copy your fonts into the Windows fonts directory. You may need to install all of the fonts via the fonts link in the Control Panel. A good program for managing your fonts is Font Suitcase this should sort it for you.

could also be the SATA drive... just off the wall.. but SATA is just not cuttin it like it was advertised to be..

disc access events.. like reading all the fonts, inputting/outputting video onto SATA drives.. may cause it to freeze

anyhow.. i'm goin back to IDE and away from SATA for a bit... as i've read elsewhere that defective SATA drives have been returned to manufactures like mad...

It's very strange I have about 1500 fonts at any given time in my default windows directory and photoshop automatically regognizes it every time...

You probably have one font that's corrupt, try adding them in smaller increments till it crashes then that might be the one.

that ain't true, if you get your fonts from someplace like www.dafont.com they are good files

sounds as though you need xp, or some sort of font manager though
