Optional Extensions

OK, a few of these look interesting. Anybody have experience with these in particular? (I am not including the descriptions for these extension since they are included in the OE folder (Photoshop CS2\Goodies\Optional Plug-Ins\Photoshop Only\Optional Extensions).

Disable Scratch Compression Registry Key
I have a fast SCSI disk, so I disabled compression. Too soon to know if it helps. Stay tuned.

Optimize Redraw Drawing Registry Key
I would like to know *which* cards *can* keep up with CS2. Should I disable this or not? Matrox G550.

Use Async Scratch Registry Key
This looked promising, but IIRC, it caused errors for me in CS. Maxtor Atlas IV with Adaptec 19160N controller. What kind of hardware benefits from this?

Surely someone has let their curiosity get the better of them and played with these things...

BTW, has any adventurous soul tried the CS reg hack to restore the thumb icons in CS2?

Ok, the CS reg hack is dead. Bummer.

<bump>

SO, Ho, had any luck sorting out the extension thing?

No, but thanks for asking.

Maybe the motto "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies Howard :)

Where'd that voice come from?

Maybe John, but seems lots of folks think it's broke.

I'm going to look through them... when i get some time! :)

but first i'm goin' to disney world!

wheeeee! :)

(seriously!)

Tell Goofy I said hi.
