Hello everyone! *waving*

I'm new to this site and in desperate need of help. I edit images in Photoshop CS3, until last night every function performed beautifully...here is my problem, step by step

I launch Photoshop CS3 successfully
I click FILE
I click OPEN
THE OPEN WINDOW POPS UP FOR A SECOND AND IMMEDIATELY CLOSES (I do not have time to see my files in the OPEN window, let alone select anything!)
the Photoshop CS3 title bar then "mutes" and I cannot make it active again
I then have to shut down PHOTOSHOP CS3
Note: The other commands work: NEW, BROWSE, ETC. - it is only FILE > OPEN that gives this complication

I am an illustrator scanning and editing portraits - I use this alot, so if there's anyone out there who can keep me from driving myself, my car and my computer over the edge of a cliff, please talk to me!
