Hello,

Can anyone tell my how it's possible that one program (picture editing)
is capable of shutting down windows xp on a notebook very fast as if
it thinks that the battery is down so it has to shut down?
While another editing program that uses the same amount of processor
speed is working without a problem.
It is a brand new notebook Duo core.

two questions: does this program really run the battery down, or just
somehow convince Windows the battery has run down? I presume it's the
former than the latter.

secondly: what the heck is this program anyway?

IT is Lightroom from Adobe, adobe support sais its a hardware problem.
But only Lightroom has the problem.

Even when it is not on battary power the notebook shuts down
The program doesn't really run the battary down. But it shuts down as
if it is on low battary

I put 'adobe lightroom battery warning' into Google and found a
posting in the Adobe forum complaining about how buggy the current
version of Lightroom is (the only version in fact - 1.0!) and how it
makes the poster's system slow to a crawl and crash. Adobe have told
him too that it's a hardware problem - this to a guy who runs
Photoshop CS3, Bridge CS3 and Dreamweaver with no problems.

Every other program works fine on your PC, and the problem only starts
when you run Lightroom version 1.0?

Hardware problem my ass.

The only thing that wil help is a patch from Adobe. Welcome to the
wacky world of pro-bono beta testing.

Thank you

I have no problem with cs2, dreamweaver 8, canon professional, etc
etc. only with Ligtroom
Me vendor lets my try it on a same type brandnew notebook so we will
see next week
