So JJ, how’d it go?

By the way, they have a gadget for the side bar ‘All CPU Usage’, was able to get the RAM usage up to 5.1 Gigs while screwing around in PS, it just kept going up & up. Shweet! Shut down PS and it returned to 1.6 with in seconds. So much for the 2Gig barrier.

Everything good so far.

Most programs now installed and a few less-used (plus the peripherals) to be done later. Photoshop opens in 2 (TWO!) seconds even after a fresh boot. 🙂

The GUI is a big jump from XP and I’m learning it and what’s under it with the aid of <http://www.tweakguides.com/TGTC.html>

Two things bug me so far: one is those damned arrows on short-cut icons and the other, less trivial, is the "Access Denied" error message which pops up when I click on folders and files outside the "Public Area". I thought turning off UAC would avoid that.

Anyway on with the learning. 🙂

I’ve never seen the "Access Denied" message.

Could it be because the only user is me and the log-in is not password protected?

No. There are some folders and shortcuts you can’t access through Explorer. You can get there via command line, though.

Thanks guys.

I think if I have any more non-Photoshop questions on Vista I’d better post them down one level.

John – I found that with Vista and Bridge I had some access (permissioning) problems when using external drives. If I started Bridge Run in Administrative Mode (rt ck on icon and choose option) that solved the problem. Probably same in CS3. I am a single use PC.
