I use WinXP Pro SP1 as my main operating system.  Memory modules = 288MB

I do a lot of photo enhancement work using JASC Paint Shop Pro 8 (PSP8).  My problem is that after a few
adjustment to a photo, everything "locks up," and Windows Task Master tells me that CPU = 100%.  I then
must close PSP8 down.

I can switch to a Windows ME operating system, and I don't have any problem, but WinXP is my Internet OS,
so I use it most often.

What is the solution, if any, to this problem?  Do I need to add more memory?

Thanks ,

Tom
