could not initialize because of a program error
This is my problem while loading the program

i have 2 NTFS partitions on one harddisk

first the primary scratchdisk was "startup"
then i changed primary scratchdisk to d:/ and secondary to c:/
After restart my problem occurd

Reinstalling Photoshop could not solve the problem, it kept the same error message

only after totally reinstalling windows XP prof. i could use the program again
For now i do not set any scratchdisks

My harddisk is ok with no bad sectors

hmm... ok...

I would've suggest you just delete your Prefs file first before taking the longer path you took.

Can't be certain, but check Adobe's PS Forum for ant info you can on how Photoshop handles the NTFS file system formating. I wouldn't suspect any trouble, but i don't use that format so i haven't really check into it thoroughly.

Glad it's cleared up anywho. [honesty]
