PhotoShop 6 installation


I have just reinstalled 6 on to a new computer and I got a screen message stating words to the effect that I have chosen to install PhotoShop and something else in the same volume and it may cause problems. I should move them into different volumes or ideally on to different drives. I have moved on from that screen now and I can't get back to it to tell you what it said exactly.

Can anyone tell me what I have done wrong and how to correct it?

Hi wetterfugal and welcome to the board

The message has to do with the location of scratch disk and that it is in the same partition and/or drive as your Photoshop installation.
For performance reasons it's better to have your scratch disk in a separate partition and even better, on a separate drive.

You can change the location of your scratch disk here; Edit/Preferences/Memory & Image Cache... and then select Plus-Ins & Scratch Disk and select the desired partition or drive beside the section called First.

Thanks Gaussian, that was the exact message, I shall follow your instructions.
