Anyone having trouble with Vista and CS2? My system (brand new) says it’s having trouble and crashes my computer. Any ideas?

CS2 is not supported. Some folks are having no issues others are.

So, is CS3 supported? Do I need to upgrade to make sure there are no issues?

Yep, CS3 is the only done to work with Vista.

Well, i didn’t step out onto the "BLEEDing Edge" with Vista – but i did foolishly buy XP 64bit. If only there were time machines.

I can’t get CS2 to work, i’ve tried uninstalling re-installing – and i get so frustrated i guess now i am just STALLing…..

I’m trying to get a standard XP copy to redo my OS – but is there anything for in the mean time? (And mean MEAN time!)

Thanks for any help!

So in other words I have to pay for an upgrade to CS3 on my brand new(5 month old Gateway boat anchor with Vista)so that it "might" run right?

CS2 worked fine for me on Vista (Ultimate and Business) and so does CS3. —

Ditto. Vista Premium & CS2… working splendidly together.

While I’m pleased that all of you are getting along so well I’m still limping along like Keith; unexplained blue screen crash dumps, 5+ minutes to open PhotoShop, InDesign or Bridge (that’s for each program) This crippled bloat of a program has lost most of its charm and I’ve got too much time and $$$$ invested. Even my computer gurus
can’t fix it. I’m just trying to decide if its worth investing any more anything into it!
