A short while back I downloaded a trial of CS4 Extended, and it worked like magic on Vista 32 bit, dual screen monitors, Nvidia 8800GTS graphics card with drivers not updated. CS4 was a fast as CS3, if not faster.
I did a format this weekend, and put in my OS, updated Nvidia driver, updated all drivers etc, etc. Put in MS Office 2007 as this was in there before. I then installed CS4 and opened it, set my preferences up, closed it down, opened it again, opened a new doc, tried the brush tool and serious, serious lag.
I am talking about this is the same system in every respect pre Format.
What could make a Format cause lag? Nothing.
The problem is either Nvidia’s new drivers, or an Adobe Problem. Either way, I am not keeping this product as before it is resolved, my 30 days will be up.
I wanted to share this information because this was like a test where CS4 "should" have performed like a charm. Instead it’s like a dead horse, or a half finished product.
On an added side note. I run Maxon 4D, and Vue XStream on openGL, and guess what? NO issues with those programs rendering. No lag…..just superb performance.
CS4 is now deactivated. 😐 CS3 is now back. 🙂
