Adobe InDesign/my InDesign CS2 freeze when I'm trying to place something

Question
Hi, do you have any idea what's wrong if everytime my InDesign CS2 freeze when I do "place" to place an object? I even haven't seen the place window yet? That's also happened with my Illustrator CS2. I have try reboot the machine a couple of times but it's still acting like that. Thanks for replying

Answer
Hi Andri, thanks for the question.

I'm not sure what the problem could be. I (luckily) haven't had the problem. I would try reinstalling InDesign from the disks and see if it gets rid of any bugs. I'd also recommend that you have as much RAM as possible and/or do not have any other programs open while running InDesign.

Sorry, I wish I could be more help. Let me know if there's anything else. Thanks.

Experience

After starting my design career using QuarkXPress and PageMaker for many years, the release of InDesign instantly caught my eye. Being one of the reasons for Adobe buying Aldus, I knew this would change the publishing world very quickly. I started using InDesign's first release and haven't looked back. I have dedicated my work and much of my spare time using InDesign to its fullest—and it's paid off. My workflow is quicker, my computer runs smoother, and my files print cleaner and without problem.
