DC Emergency: Photoshop Mutiny **EDIT: Fixed!**


**FIXED.  Thanks everyone for your help!  I have the best readers ever.***

Terrible news!  As of yesterday, all of my gradients in Photoshop started turning ugly, with horrible color banding like this:

My problem seems to be isolated to Photoshop, but it’s only happened in the past day on two different machines (my Mac Pro and Macbook Pro).

So far I’ve tried all these things and failed:

1) Reinstalled the previous OSX 10.5.7 update
2) Reinstalled Photoshop CS4
3) Turned off the GPU acceleration in Photoshop
4) Reset all the display setting on my computer

It’s only happened since I updated to 10.5.8, but what stumps me is that when I reinstalled the OS with 10.5.7 I still have the problem. And since it’s happening on different machines, even when I turn off GPU acceleration, I don’t think it has to do with the graphics card, at least not directly.

My main computer specs:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:    2.5  GHz
Memory: 4 GB, Type: DDR3
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
2 Graphics cards: NVIDIA GeForce 9400M

The latest comic is on hold until I can resolve this, so any help would be aggressively appreciated! As always, you can contact me at dresdencodak@gmail.com
