CS5 Freezes While Starting Up. Can anyone help?

So I have had Photoshop CS5 for a few years now and about a week ago the program started to become slow and would sometimes freeze up while using the brush strokes, regardless of which tool and drawing utensil I used (mouse or tablet). So I uninstalled it and reinstalled it but now the program won't even start up! It starts and then gets to the "Initalizing..." part then stops and freezes, forcing me to close the program by force. I have uninstalled and reinstalled over and over again but with hardly any luck. And the one time the program did fully "run" it quickly froze and again, I had to close it by force.
I have installed the latest drivers for my computer, an ASUS G46V
It has a Intel Core i5-323M CPU @ 2.60GHz
Memory (RAM): 8.00 GB (7.89 GB usable)
64-bit Operating system with a x64 based processor
and is running on Windows 8.1
Any help is appreciated. I have tried running Photoshop with and without the tablet but it always had the same results. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and I have run the program as an administrator.
I also downloaded the free version of CS2 and the same problem seems to be appearing...which makes me think this might be a computer problem, but again, I need help with this. I rely on Photoshop for my art and I have commissions to do and finish.So I would like to get this fixed as soon as possible.

I did get CS2 for free from here https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=cs2_downloads.
So unless I have to pay for this eventually then I guess it is free.
Yes you did were you honest when you agreed with the terms there? CS2 is not Free.
The serial numbers provided as a part of the download may only be used by customers who legitimately purchased CS2 or Acrobat 7 and need to maintain their current use of these products.

I have worked with brush sizes and it slows down for the large brush sizes regardless of the size of the canvas, but unfortunately I have a unfinished commission on a pretty large canvas, and resizing it not only freezes the program but it causes the picture to loose quality in looks. So I have tried all that. And this is a problem be cause this program literately just randomly stopped functioning properly. For months it worked fine with little to no problems, and then it just suddenly getting issues.
I only see lag with large tipped wet mixer brushes when I paint on image where I viewing actual pixel. Its a totally different story when you paint view fit on screen when you canvas size is large. I looks like Photoshop is painting the millions of pixels on the larges canvas tile by tile and scaling the tiles theo the zoomed out scalde dowv image its displaying for you to see. You not seeing the actual image being painted..

TC freezes while starting - Network adapter damaged?!

Hello everyone,
I have a TC 1TB, which worked fine a couple of month. Unfortunately, since yesterday, TC doesn't work at all, as it seems to be unable to start. From one minute to the other TC didn't appear in my Finder, TC showed a yellow light (not flashing). I tried to restart, since then, the following repeats after every restart (including those after resetting):
TC shows a "yellow light" => shut down the TC, disconnected any cables and start again; then, shortly after showing a "green light", the light starts flashing and than continues in yellow. After a few seconds, yellow light starts flashing, TC seems to restart, ten seconds later the green light appears, followed by the same flashing and continuing in yellow.... All along, TC's drive is running.
The Airport software recognizes my TC as soon as the green light appears, but cannot conntect because in the meantime, TC shows up with a yellow light and so on and on....
I tried to restart several times, including different types of resetting the TC (pushing the button while TC is running as well as when connecting to power).
Can anyone solve this?
I do not think that my TC is dead (unlike many other postings....), because I still can start it. Anyway, I can't connect to it, neither wireless nor directly via ethernet cable....

Hi!
I already tried this - but it did not help. Right now I am writing this lines while looking a streamed video from my iMac. You may ask, why it works - it's easy: I plugged on my old AVM Fritzbox 3070.
I will try this for another hour, but I guess that one thing is sure right now: the TimeCapsule is the problem, not any of my Macs or programs.
Well - and I decided one more thing: my Fritzbox doesn't work "apple-like" using "Back to my Mac". Sometimes I need this feature. So I decided to order an AirportExtreme today. It will arrive here in the next 3 days, so I can try this next Monday.
The TimeCapsule is very slow doing updates - so I never really liked it. Well - if the Fritzbox and the new Airport does a better job, the switch will be perfect.
Anybody out there interested in a nice TimeCapsule 500 ?
*EDIT - it does NOT work :,-(*
Well - my Fritzbox worked for 15 Minutes and now the Videostreaming freezed. BUT - the network does not freeze like it does using the TimeCapsule. However - I am really interested in the AirPort Extreme and if it will make a better job.
My "last idea": The TimeCapsule and the Fritzbox are both about 2 or 3 years old. Maybe the network-standard isn't fast enough for high quality video and causes a crash after a few minutes.

Imac intel freezes while starting

Hi,
my friend's imac intel duocore freeze in the late stages of the starting process. This appeared after running latest software update package, including iphoto, ipod, itunes, quicktime, keynote ....
Next, I started from install disc, repaired permissions, repaired disc with disc utility, which reported some errors, but told me, it was able to repair.
Unfortunately, this did not change anything!!
What should I do?
- run diskwarrior (3.0.3)?
Or will I have to install a new system?
If yes, is there a way to keep the old data?
The other thing I missed: when booting from cd, I expected to be able to see the harddrives data, but it was not! How can I access it.
If nothing helps, I'll run the imac as a slave disk of my ibook to backup!!
I'll hope there is someone to assist me a little bit!
Thanks in advance!

oh, I'm sorry.
looking into one the lates threads I found a million things to check before asking questions in here - sorry!

Blackberry Tour 9630 freezes while starting up and won't turn on

A few hours ago I uninstalled an app on my Tour, and was asked whether to reboot now or later to complete the process. So I selected to reboot now. The phone turned off and while the white loading symbol was feeling up it all the sudden stopped a little more than halfway loaded. So I removed the battery to try and start the process over and it continues to stop at the same point in loading process and won't turn on. I have never connected my Blackberry to computer before. Not sure what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really can't go without a phone this week end.

Same thing is happening to mine. They said update the software but it wont do it while rebooting. Geez, what to do. Need my phone badly as well.

Why does elements 13 crash and freeze while starting up while using windows 8.1

Have had problems with crashes and freezing up with both elements 12 and now elements 13. Thinking there are problems with Windows 8.1 and adobe premiere elements. Can anyone shed any light on this issue?

Perhaps you also need to reset the preferences file for your both PSE12 and PSE13. The suggested method for earlier versions (10 and 11) was posted here:
<can't get pse10 to take my styles, have had pse 10 since 2011 bought pse13 and installed, uninstalled pse10 inorder to get pse13 to install easer, I reinstalled pse10 but now the stules I have do not appear in the effect section. I have checked BOTh secti>
Read post number 3 to see if it works in PSE12 and PSE13. Do 12 first and then 13.

Toshiba Satellite C655 SP4168M freezes while playing a game

So i've been having problems with mi laptop very recently with a game i'm playing (League of legends), the game normally works perfectly, but at random times it just completely freezes (making an awkward sttutering sound) and i have to forcefully shutdown and restart the PC. It doesnt happen ALL the time, but when it happens it's really annoying, and i can either happen once every week, or several times daily. I already repaired the video driver but that didnt help, i was thinking about updating the BIOS; but cant find the correct version for my laptop, and i cant even be sure that's actually the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

try using a program like "Piriform Speccy" (free version), and monitor the CPU temps as you are using the system. If it gets up into the orange and red while watching videos, you may need to apply fresh thermal paste to the CPU.
My old L355 is starting to freeze while watching youtube videos the other day, and just confirmed that the CPU is overheating. Will be tearing it apart hopefully tonight to be cleaned up and have a fresh application of arctic silver on the CPU.

My ipod touch 4g is not being recognised on my new toshiba laptop. The ipod touch starts charging then stops. This keeps continuing. Please help.

my ipod touch 4g is not being recognised on my new toshiba laptop or itunes. Its not being shown on my computer and its not shown as 'unspecified' in the 'devices window'. The ipod touch starts charging then stops this keeps continuing like a ongoing circle. Please help.
I have tried on my family members laptop and its seems to be picking up. So the ipod or the usb wire is not the issue.
I have tried everything from reinstalling itunes and updating windows.
I have tried the diagnostics test and its still says the ipod cannot be found.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

My laptop keeps freezing when i start it up

I posted this on my phone, by the way, since I couldn't even open up Google Chrome without my laptop freezing.

For some apparent reason, my laptop keeps freezing right when I start it up. When I type in my password and my desktop screen comes up, I try to go to control panel to uninstall an adobe software I had downloaded but caused my laptop to lag (I downloaded it from the adobe website, itself). But right when the control panel windows comes up, and I try to move my mouse around a bit (I use an external mouse thing), my laptop freezes right there. I tried to go to McAfee to scan for viruses just in case but it froze when the windows came up as well. I tried doing the ctrl + shift + esc thing and I don't think anything's going wrong but when the window comes up and I move the mouse around a bit, my laptop freezes. Nothing's overheating and dusty or anything. And no matter how many times I tried to force shut my laptop down by holding the power button until it turns off, it still freezes every time. Someone please help me troubleshoot this.

Laptop L655-S5157 Does Not Start Up & Run.......

My Laptop L655-S5157 Does Not Start Up & Run Longer Than 1-3 Mins Upon Selecting The Start Button.
After It Starts & Looks Like It's Going To Run Normal, It Just Turns Right OFF.
I Can't Send Any Attachments Because The Only Way I Can Communicate Is Running The LT In The "SAFE MODE".
I've Taken Pics Of It Running & Trying To Repair Itself On My iPhone.
I've Also Ran "Startup Repair" Program, But All It Says In The End, Is It Can't "Repair This Computer Automatically".
It Then Says To Send The Problem Details To "Microsoft Solutions", I Comply & Send The Information To Them.
I Know Enough About Laptops/Computers To Be DANGEROUS...
I Really Dont Understand What To Do In The "Safe Mode", Except That It's Safe & Runs Only The Essentials.

It Started NOT Running In The Normal mode The Day That Chuck Noll Passed Legendary Football Coach Ot The Pittsburg Steelers On 14 Jun 2014.
The Link I Clicked On Was From Twitter
Ever Since Then, The Only Way I Can Communicate With The World Through My Computer Is In The Safe Mode.

Problem with updating bios toshiba satellite l655-s5144

Hello first of all having a good day, four months ago a problem with my laptop toshiba satellite l655-5144 I have something crazy ,happens that when starting Windows 7/8 freezes there and I can not access windows, I thought it was an error of hdd, but I think I'm surprised that it is not, since changing the hdd and still gives the same problem of being paralyzed in Home windows, all this began to update the BIOS to version 2.8 that turned out to be the operating profit that was for windows 8, not sure if this is due to the problem but I've tested the ram, hdd, cpu, etc and everything about the hardware works well and gives no problems, I think that the problem was caused by updating the BIOS to version 2.8, my question is whether you can return to the factory version was 2.2, or at least the previous version to 2.8 which was the one I worked thanks for your answers and spend time helping me, is the agradesco much.
And sorry for my bad English.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello and thank you for coming to see the problem I had with my laptop, that seems to fix the problem so far, I hope q not refreeze operating system again, and I could restore the BIOS to version in which was when purchased.
If anyone has the same problem as I leave then follow these steps:
1.Find BIOS version with which acquired the laptop
2. Use of mnetodo booted by CD.
3. Insert the CD from the boot.
4. Upon resumption of the program ran hidden PC (that I saw no message)
5. After restart, windows restart again and enter the bios to see if it had changed the version of this and it turned out was successful.
Well I hope this problem the laptop again, and thank you for deigning to read at least my problem.

Satellite L840-A626 - Windows freezes while boting

Hi!
i have a problem on my toshiba Satellite L840-A626 .. and tht is Adobe flash player update suddenly appeared on screen and i accidentally clicked update..
My laptop shutdown immediately then after that. Its always freezes in start up.. start up repair wont work and when i opened my laptop again its always a black screen displaying "starting windows". .. freezes again .. hoping for your response thnk you ... support team

You did not mention the system you are using now but the notebook was preinstalled with Win 7 system and I guess this OS is still in use on your notebook.
Therefore you should be able to access the Advanced Menu pressing F8 button while powering on the unit.
Then you should choose the option Repair my computer to enter the system recovery options menu.
Here you can choose different repair options like Startup Repair or System restore which helps you to set the OS to early time point before the update has been installed.
