I just installed CS2 and half of my filters are showing up as faded out and I can’t use them.

What kinds of files? 16 bit? CMYK?

Many filters only work if the image is in 8bit, rather than 16 bit. You can make the necessary change using Image > Mode and from the drop-down menu choose 16 bit

Bernard meant choose 8 bit.

Also, many filters won’t work on files in formats other than RGB. If you can’t use a given filter, the file may be palletted (e.g., GIF), CMYK, duotone, etc. You would have to change the Image Mode to RGB/8 to use all filters.
