ok, i get this error "could not open filename.bmp because of disk error" whenever i try to load some of my images larger than about 150 megapixels (somewhere between 100 and 200 seems to be the cuttoff). How do i get around this? i mean, these images have to be opened to be resized down! i cant even open them.

do you guys know if there is any software out there that supports higher image pixel counts than photoshop?

 
Hi,

Try this first: faq229-2082

If that doesn't work, try doing a system cleanup and defrag etc. You can only go as large as the scratch disk will allow. If you allocate larger ammounts of space then you might find working with larger images alot easier.

Hope this helps!
