Re: Scratch Drive Is Full?
Have you checked your preferences to see how much of that free space you are allowing PS to use. Scratch disk is just temporary ram. If you run out of memory it uses your hard disk as ram instead of the memory modules.
Ideally a seperate disk is used for this, or a partition. If you are using one disk for this and working on big files, you should at least ensure PS can use a large chunk of the HD. You can set this in the Preferences.
Mind you, your system should be able to run with the default allocation, which I think is 25%. However, unless your working with a number of other apps open at the same time as PS, you can increase this significantly. I have less ram and considerably less HD space than you, so set my system to 88%, but rarely have other apps open with PS.

Edit...OOPs...That should have read RAM, not HD.
