So I download the trial of CS. Installs fine. Open it to find that it takes minutes to complete one task [typing, filling in the background, etc.], images saves in black and white sometimes, and they always import as a brownish/green shade.

I cannot do any type of work, what is wrong?

1.) Make sure your Photoshop allocated RAM is set to < 60%
2.) Set your Pagefile to Min=Max=1024
3.) Run Adobe Gamma and create a good monitor Profile
