    Is your HardDisk full? Cause thats what scratch disk is. Photoshop use your disk the same way it use virtual memory.

    If you are getting a Scratch Disk Error/ or need to set a Scratch disk

    Try this

    - Optimize scratch disks.

    When insufficient RAM is available for bitmap image editing, Photoshop uses a scratch disk file--temporary disk space used for storing data and performing computations. Photoshop CS can create 64 exabytes of scratch disk files on up to four hard disk partitions, while Photoshop 7 can create 4 exabytes of scratch disk files on up to four hard disk partitions. An exabyte is 1.074 billion gigabytes.

    The partitions you specify as the scratch disks should have enough free space to hold data several times the size of your image. A rule of thumb for good performance is to have free space equal to three to five times the size of the average image file. If disk space is insufficient, delete temporary files (see task 5) or remove other files from the hard disks.

    To specify a scratch disk in Photoshop, choose Edit > Preferences > Plug-ins & Scratch Disks.

    serial: blank
    set first: c://
    2nd,3rd,4th: none

    I found this somewhere once b/c my friend had same problem, you may want to delete some of your old work or upload it someplace to try and see if PS will open up

    *pressing F5 will reset ur settings...so you'll have to install all your brushes and everything over *
