With your answer, no reason to be slow, regardless of the size of your photo
files.
Is this a sudden slowdown? Photos were opening fast before?

Any size of photo. even 200 KB, ages is about 1 complete minute or some times
more. I compare it with colleagues around with lower specifications and it
opens very fast.
I have Adobe SC2 installed also in this machine

programms i find it like that.

=============================
Try the following steps and maybe the
files will open faster:

Right click on a .jpg file and choose
Properties. Click the Photoshop Image tab
and uncheck the "Generate Thumbnails" button,
then click OK.

Ok...maybe that's not applicable to
your version of PhotoShop.

Personally, just as an experiment...
I think I would uninstall PhotoShop.
