I have found the same,
Running XPHome with 1.5GB ram with 95% allocated to CS originally I had all
sorts of problems, stalls and crashes in CS. I only ever run CS on its own.
Cranking it back to 85% seems to have fixed it. In Win98 on an older Athlon
system I ran PS 6.0 for years without problems. I always understood that
PShop would use whatever % you set of AVAILABLE ram, so if you set 100%, it
would take all of the ram not used by the OS etc.
It looks like XP or CS use Ram differently.
I haven't found a definitive statement in any of the quite a few texts I
have on what the optimum settings are for XP Page file settings and CS swap
file settings. Anybody out there know?
