Hi there, I dunno why I cannot install Photoshop CS3 after upgrading my OS to Vista SP1. I have searched for lots of "solution" in Google but they seem to be useless and I am still unable to install PS in my computer.

Does anyone here has the above situation and would you mind to tell me how to solve this problem?

Thanks a lot.

I bought a new computer with Vista Home Premium installed, and i updated the vista to SP1 through Windows Update .. after that, i am unable to install PS on my computer ..

I dunno whether this is the problem of compatibility between PS and Vista SP1 .. please help : (
