I seem to have a unique and extremely annoying problem. When I have several programs all residing in the same folder my system goes into a semi-lockup until the icons have displayed which, at times, just ends up with the computer freezing up. These are the standard icons used by PTE and nothing custom about them. PTE is the only program where I have a problem and has, at times, forced me into rebooting my system by turning off the computer and restarting. This happens to both my main desktop computer and to my laptop. No other programs - slide or otherwise - gives me this problem. I hope that you can provide me with an answer as I like PTE but don't want to have to create a separate folder for each and every show that I produce. My main machine runs Windows XP Media Editiion, has 3 Gigs of RAM, 500 Gigs of storage and the laptop runs Windows XP Home Edition, has 1 Gig of RAM and 100 Gigs of storage. Both systems are up to date with the latest versions of the operating system. Help!!! Many thanks, Bob
