Hi,
I’ve just installed a fresh copy of Windows Vista Business last night. After installing Photoshop CS3 however, I noticed a very serious lag issue. I looked into the problem a bit on google and this forum but did not reach a solution.
In general, the issues are as follows:
1. Opening and closing even the smallest of files takes a ridiculous amount of time.
2. Moving the mouse cursor over the toolbar or menubar requires up to 3 seconds before a response is received.
3. Right click menu requires up to 3 seconds to appear
4. Application of any tools shows a noticeable delay of action.
The most common suggestion is the "Network Printer" solution, which was not helpful to everyone including me. I also tried to change the performance settings and the cache level according to the optimization guide on this site, that also did not solve the problem.
I tried to run the software in XP pro SP2 compatibility mode, did not make a difference in performance. Disabling all the graphic options for Vista such as Aero Experience also was useless.
I’m just wondering as to whether we ever did reach a solution to resolve the issue or is this problem still left hanging?
CS3 ran fine before my upgrade from XP Pro SP2, I do not believe my hardware specs have anything to do with the lag issue. Yet, I’ll leave it below just in case you guys need it as reference…
