Hi everybody!

I am trying to set up Photoshop on a system. Are there any tweaks that I should do?
Also, the cache levels, they are set to 4 initially. Will raising that help performance?
I have set the scratch disk to work off of a 3GB disk whose sole purpose is to act as virtual memory (Win2K swap and Photoshop scratch disk)

System specs:
Win2K Pro
Celeron 566 at 850 (default voltage) http://www.sysopt.com/forum/biggrin.gif
Abit BF6
192 MB RAM
13 GB 5400 rpm WD ATA66 (not utilizing this last feature)
3 GB 5400 rpm Maxtor
12x Mitsumi cd-rom
7200i HP burner (2x2x20x)

Any PS twaeks would be of great use. I don't want to customize the color palatte or anything, just tweaks tro make it faster for graphics design for web sites. (others apps in heavy use: Freehand 9, Flash 5, Dreamweaver 4)

Thanks
Dave
