CS2 Auto Save ?

[Wayland]

I made the change to CS2 from PSP quite a while ago with little problem.

However my system has become a little unstable lately for reasons I cannot track down. (Probably unrelated to PhotoShop)

On PSP there was a facility to automaticaly save the file at regular intervals. This was useful in a system crash because you would only lose work not saved since the last auto save.

Now I may be being dense, but I cannot find any similar facility on CS2 and at the moment I could really use it.

Any suggestions?

It wouldnt be practical since for large images the process can be quite time consuming and it would become a periodic annoyance. Get into the habit of hitting ctrl+s frequently.

Photoshop is one of the more stable apps that I know. Is your system overclocked?

Maybe he's running Windows.

Ah, but I'm running Windows, too. And I have always been struck by the fact that Photoshop, which is much more complex a piece of software than Windows (IMNSHO) is much more stable than the underlying OS.

I have often held that Micro$oft's last O.S. that was really ready for release was DOS version 3.1.

Read the smiley.

But Photoshop is far less complex than Windows, and the original poster wrote system crash, not Photoshop crash.

Surely you misspelt PC-DOS 2.11, as released by IBM.

For most of their lives, PC-DOS and MS-DOS were nearly interchangeable, with fairly minor differences, so I omitted the prefix. And while XX-DOS 2.11 was quite fine, the 3.1 version was also quite reliable, too. 4.0, of course, was a disaster, but 5 fixed most of the bugs of 4 and was almost there ...

Ah, the good old days!    

I have a friend who owned a two-digit serial number copy of MS-DOS 1.0.

I guess I'll have to stop wet-coating my own glass plates pretty soon and join the 20th century. Hmm. I wonder if there's a website that will tell me how I can coat my own digital sensors?
