Hi, I was just wondering before going ahead and purchasing an upgrade to Photoshop CS3… Is there any way that I can install this under Service Pack 1? Service Pack 2 unfortunately overheats my videocard and puts too much strain on it, even after a few hours. I was and still am a huge fan of the CS series, but CS3 is what I need and I haven’t found a single way to install it under SP1.
For those going ahead and telling me to try installing Service Pack 2 again, I won’t travel that route ever again. Not only did I have problems while having the Service Pack installed, I had problems even after I uninstalled it (As it attached itself to my bootstrap, and I couldn’t boot back into XP at all!) Losing almost 9 months of web-design that hadn’t been backed up yet. There are issues with the Service Pack including security holes that I haven’t found in Service Pack 1 just yet, or have, but they have been filled and fixed by Microsoft.
If anyone can help me, that would be great. Otherwise, I don’t think I will be upgrading, and I don’t think I’ll be able to purchase anymore software from Adobe. If Service Pack 2 is a requirement on all further applications, I won’t be able to run anything.
Thanks
