In Vista, you can CTR-ALT-Delete to Task Manager, go to Processes, right-click Phtotshop.exe and go down to "set affinity".
I use CS3 Extended on a dual-core AMD 64 (32 bit OS), and it uses cpu 1 and cpu 2. That’s without Bridge open…
Also, Vista will never report 4GB RAM. It will report, (by default),
3.1GB. My box reports 3.5. Windows uses the balance for mapping
purposes so it’s never going to report the full 4GB unless you run a 64 bit OS.
I’m sorry if this is OT as your question concerns a Mac OS, but I thought it may help the Winblows users out there, as well.
If I knew Vista was going to suck so much for the first few months, (even now-I’m just trying to be happy with what I’ve got and the fixes that HAVE been made to Vista…), I woulda bought a G5 in a heartbeat. In fact, I’m still considering it.

Hi!
I don’t know if someone already asked that question
or noticed this behaviour of PS CS3, but: on
my Intel Mac (Core Duo 2Ghz) Photoshop always
only uses one processor core, sometimes not even
100%. In the Prefs is no reference to CPU usage,
therefore I don’t know if this willingly of Adobe
or a problem of my machine. Does anybody have
an idea?
Thanks!

I have two graphics cards,
1) GeForce 2 MX 6800
2) GeForce 6200E Turbo Cache
Can I install both into the same PC.
I want to use two monitors with PS3.
I am told that I might have to have additional
software to do this.
I am *not* a computer buff and my knowledge
on such matters is very limited.
Thanks.
