Help with photoshop 7

[Martyr63rd]

does any one know enough about this program? i just bought it today and it is the full version and i actually did pay for it $600 well now my wife is going to kill me but hey only live once. Now to my point, I have used pirated versions before and they seemed to work fine, now i pay this much for this and it wont start up? crashes back to desktop?

i have exactly what i had before as far as computer? any one else with this problem?

I do the right thing and see what i get.

Make sure you have your pagefile enabled. Photoshop requires an active pagefile on your system. If that doesn't work, I'm sure for that price they provide tech support - you might want to call them.

Umm....I tried tech support!

"make sure you have the latest drivers installed or updated"

Have you tried the Photoshop update (v7.01)?

Have you, if possible, tried installing it on another computer, or maybe on a clean installed WinXP?

you learned your lesson. Nick fhings, dont buy things. Especially if they cost alot and don't work on your system.

well the problem was kinda solved in the xperience tech room. hehe. so i have to run it in compatibility mode, that is what you get when you do the right thing. Thanks guys for the help!

you are correct Chastity, and so was the people who sold it to me. But after the install it didn't do as they proclaim. But as i posted the geniuses in #xperience (irc) fixed the problem sorta. Just a bit sluggish, atleast it gets past the load screen now.

try unistalling and reinstalling. Be sure that when u unstall double check and make sure the PHOTOSHOP directory is completly deleted. If reinstalling doesnt work then chances are that registry key is messed up, you can either do a clean install to fix the problem or if you get lucky enough you can run a program like "fix it utilities 4.0" and run the registry cleaner and hopefully it fixes the problem, if you decide to run fix it, make sure you have photoshop unistalled before your run fix it.
