I've been having an intermittent problem with Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 Extended and getting an AppHangB1 error off and on for about 3 weeks. I've seen this in other threads, but none of the solutions helped. It doesn't happen when I click on anything anymore (it used to happen when clicking on the text tool) and occurs right after it loads. Here is the error message it gives me:

I have an ATI Radeon HD 4620 graphics card and I'm running Windows 7 32bit. My system is an HP Compaq 8100 Elite PC -- Intel Core i5 3.33 GHz with 4GB of RAM. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and after working for about 2 weeks, it's come back. It was working great Wednesday and it stopped working this morning when I turned off my system. It has absolutely derailed all my projects.
I did notice that on the front page of the discussons page there was a disclaimer saying that the current version of CS5 was 12.0.0.4 but I'm currently running 12.1.0.0
Thank you in advance for all your help.

See the signs for what they are: You have rubbish fonts on your system. If it happened with teh text tool it may no simply have degenerated to a point where it does happen right away because some system font is affected as well. Straighten out yopur fonts, trash the prefs, try again.

Mylenium: Thank you very much. I deleted the majority of the fonts in my folder and it definitely helped the improvement of Photoshop. Thanks for your help.
