I have searched the internet and these forums and Adobe for the past week, trying everything I could find.

Under Vista Ultimate I cannot get Photoshop CS3 Extended to run, it will open up and then just sit……Adobe Bridge CS3 2.0.0975 opens and works just fine. So does Lightroom 1.41.
I even tried opening PS from these programs, but just the same.

I then installed Corel Paint Shop Pro X2 and that works perfect too.

I have tried removing and reinstalling, repaired and updated but it makes no difference. It will install and also do the repair just fine.
Changing the compatible mode and appearance to Windows Classic (from Aero) makes no difference. I am the only user and administrator.

Has anyone with basically this type of system been able to get Photoshop CS3 Extended (after having these problems) up and running?

PC information:
AMD Phenom 9950 Quad-Core Processor 1.61 GHz
8.00 GB Memory
64-bit Operating System
Western Digital VelociRaptor WD3000GLFS 300GB 10000 RPM 16MB Cache SATA
3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
Vista Ultimate Version 6.0 (Build 6001:ServicePack 1)

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Any information and help is very much appreciated.
