Few days later after I regenerate my hard drive, I working on Adobe Photoshop again and leave the program open overnight. Next morning I wake up and saw my computer restarting. I though it was an error again but would be fine after restart. So, I go to bath room. 20 minutes later come back to continue my work. The computer is still restarting. This makes me wondered. I sit down and take a look. It restarts then trying to load Windows then the blue screen flash and it restart again.
I run HDD Regeneration again to heal the bad sector on my hard drive and start searching on the internet why my hard drive has bad sectors which I never have before.
I finally found the answer. It was memory fragmentation. One of the big windows problem since Windows95!! The system cannot manage the storage space for its usage
efficiently. Adobe Photoshop uses scratch disk (Virtual Memory –like system) to reach the highest performance. It required at least 1GB free on hard drive space. The normal setting of the scratch disk is set to C:\ which is a system drive. When the program is opened, it continually consumes the space of hard drive until there is no more. My understanding, Adobe Photoshop still request the space for the scratch disk even it is no more. The system is trying to find the space on every sectors of hard drive. I think this is the caused of the bad sectors on my hard drive.
I tried to proof the cause if the errors and my assumption by leaving the computer opened with Adobe Photoshop again. Just like what I think! The same error occurs.
Now I can conclude the caused of the problem that it is the scratch disk system. I also have the suggestions from the graphic experts to manage the scratch disk.
