For one thing you spend a lot of time on the phone to India getting reactivation codes for software you bought and paid for. It is not likely that your XP installation is defective: backing up your system, reformatting the hard drive and reinstalling everything is not for the feint of heart. Instead, they are on top of each other, the background image appears in the background. Reboot and try to install CS4, presuming the DVD drive and disc are not defective. I cannot figure out why my images are not positioned next to each other. Manually delete the CS3 files under My Programs and manually comb Windows/System files and the registry for dlls and Photoshop specific references. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. Can you uninstall other programs through the add/remove applet? If you can then something has happened specifically to Photoshop.ĭeactivate CS3 (so you will not have hassles if you want to reinstall it) and make sure you have back-ups of any plug-ins you may have installed. During the Adobe Photoshop CS4 Installer: Initializing pop up window the install stalls at about 80 while Checking System Profile.

Sometimes the basic driver gets corrupted and Windows will reinstall it cleanly on reboot. If not then delete the drive in control panel/system and reboot. Will the program run if you right click on the executable and then left click on the run/install option?Īre you able to read other CD/DVDs from this drive? Have you checked under user accounts to see how your machine is set up? You may need to remove all accounts other than the administrator/you and get rid of any passwords.Ĭan you install/uninstall in safe mode? Have you tried reverting to an earlier state under system restore? Save your work and restart Adobe Photoshop CS4 if you receive the Install a printer error message when trying to print a project. In XP unless you have purposely set up your computer to exclude non-administrator accounts from any and all privileges it is rare to run into these problems which can plague Vista. XP is not plagued like Vista by bizarre\idiotic ownership protocols that can interfere with simple operations like installing programs, copying or sharing files.
This solves many transient inexplicable issues like this, which are far more common on Vista than XP, in which the user preferences et al are easily corrupted and the desktop/icons do not display/operate properly. I presume you are trying to install the shrink wrapped DVD.
