You see, when photoshop is initializing(starting), it loads your preference file located at:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\8.0\Adobe Photoshop CS Settings

the photoshop preference file is called: Adobe Photoshop CS Prefs.psp

HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM: 

Follow these steps:

1. Make sure your photoshop is not running. (or hanged) you can kill it with windows task manager by hitting control-alt-delete and select the task manager button.

2. find the file called "Adobe Photoshop CS Prefs.psp" in the following folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\8.0\Adobe Photoshop CS Settings\

3. Now select the all files in that folder cut them and paste them somewhere else.

4. Start photoshop, now it should load completely and it will prompt you to customize your color settings. You can click Yes or No.
