Install CS2 on Windows 7 32bit and 64bit, please help!

I own a legitmate CS2 Creative Suite and my old Windows XP computer must be retired. Is there any way for a non-technical person like me to install CS2 on Windows 7 64bit? I saw some instructions but they seem geared to very computer knowledgable people and I got lost just reading them. Also, I saw new that CS2 was or is being offered fro FREE from Adobe? Is that true?
OR, will CS2 as a 32bit application be more easily installed on Windows 7 32bit without any special install instructions?
Thank to alll who can help this pathetically technically challenged person! I can NOT afford to upgrade CS2.

Option 2 here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4715553 seems to work:
Copy the installer to your local drive. Right click Setup.exe, Properties > Compatibility tab > Run this in compatibility mode. Choose XP SP2. Click OK. Run Setup.exe
And yes, you can download and install them, see:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4976177
There is still ongoing discussion whether anyone is entitled to install it, or only users with a valid license, but it seems Adobe does not care.

Installing PS CS5.1 32bit and 64bit

I accepted the defaults while installing photoshop and it seems 2 versions installed? Do I need both the 32bit and 64bit versions on Windows 7 64bit ? Also, when I look at installed programs it only indicates Photoshop CS5 without any 32bit or 64bit designation. What is necessary here. Are there bugs with the 64bit version like MS Office so the 32 bit version installs also?
thanks
Milton

Both 32 and 64 bit variants are provided in case you have plug-ins or drivers that only work with one. For example, older plug-ins are generally 32 bit only, and there are no 64 bit TWAIN drivers.
64 bit Photoshop will allow you access to your entire memory space, in excess of 2 GB, while 32 bit Photoshop will be limited.
Advice: Keep 'em both, use 64 bit primarily, and use the 32 bit version if/when you have to.

Dual Boot windows 32bit and 64bit overclocking problems

Im pretty new to overclocking and this is my first try I manage to get my AMD Venice 3200 to hit 2500 with 250fsb X 10, HTT 4, vcore 1.44. I used memory divider 166/200 so the memory is running at 208MHz not alot of overclocking on the memory since it is some cheap brand.
My problem is that I have dual boot and with windows xp everything is fine CPU-z reports the right speed for the cpu and memory when I overclock, and there is an increse in preformance with overclocking, But when I boot windows XP 64bit CPU-z reports the FSB as 200 so it is not showing any change, it does report the change in the memory divider 166/200 and the cpu voltage increased that I applied to overclock. The thing is that when I open systerm properties it shows the CPU speed as 2500MHz but when I test the preformance there isnt any increase. I used Superpi to test preformance and in windows XP 32bit it finishes the 1M test in 36seconds while in Windows XP 64bit it takes 42seconds.
My system specs are
AMD Venice 3200
MSI K8N Platium bios 1.8
1024MB Wintec Memory 3200
Geforce 6800 GTO 400/1100
OCZ ModStream OCZ52012U 520W Power Supply

Im runing the final release of Windows xp 64 and cpu-z 1.30, I also have Everest Ultimate Edition and it only shows 3% overclock 205 FSB. Im thinking of formating the HD with windows 64 and installing it again with the systerm already overclock.

Trouble installing iTunes to Windows Vista (32 bit) Please help!

My computer recently had some problems a few months back and I had to delete some things and get rid of programs, iTunes being one of them.
I have tried to get it back, and it won't let me. It doesn't even begin installing. It tries to go to the installing screen, but the installer completed sign comes up and says "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again."
I have tried everything in the Apple support area and did all of the troubleshooting problems. I don't know what to do now.
Can someone help me please?

Hmmmm. Unfortunately, most of the helpful documentation and discussion i've seen about the RAID issues has related to the Intel Matrix Storage Manager drivers, and most of the SATA documentation and discussions relates to PCs with nVidia video cards (and/or other nVidia componentry).
I had a quick check at ASUS, and it looks like it might be worth doublechecking to see if your BIOS is up to date. (Some of the BIOS updates they are listing there mention improved SATA compatibility and performance.) But I'm a bit uncomfortable about that advice, since there's a P5SD2-X and a P5SD2-X SE motherborad being listed there.
so it might be prudent to doublecheck your motherboard model prior to any attempted BIOS upgrades. This ASUSTek document may be of some assistance:
Where to find my model name?
Once you've established to your satisfaction what particular model you have, here's links to the two different model pages:
Model: P5SD2-X
Model: P5SD2-X SE
If you're at all uncertain as to how to proceed with this, please check in on the ASUSTek FAQs and forums for the relevant Motherboards. (There's links to the left of each of the model pages.) I don't have an ASUS motherboard myself, so they are going to be in a better position to give you focussed advice on the process.

Cant Install Itunes to Windows 7 (Multiple Errors) Please help

so i keep trying to install itunes and i get these errors:

Even though the micorsoft website does not list hte SUBINACL tool as being a valid tool for WIndows 7, here is a thread where a microsoft support person recommends it.
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7programs/thread/324918a2-fb68 -49ba-833f-ecfb15a7ef10
I would definitely follow the advice of backing up the registry and creating a restore point before proceeding with subinacl.
After you have downloaded subinacl and installed using admin rights, do these steps to reset the registy permissions:
~Start Notepad.
~Copy and then paste the following text into Notepad.
cd /d "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Resource Kits\Tools"
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEYLOCALMACHINE /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEYCURRENTUSER /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEYCLASSESROOT /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
subinacl /subdirectories %windir%\. /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb /verbose
~Save this Notepad file as Reset.cmd.
~Double-click the Reset.cmd file to run the script.
Note This script file may take a long time to run. You must run this script as an administrator.

Does iTunes come with 32bit and 64bit install?

I have Windows 7 and it's a 32bit and 64bit Gaming Laptop G73SW.
I've done all the troubleshoot tips, which has just made my computer worse.eg all icons changed, things now missing, so probably have to do a System Retore to get it all back.
Every time i speak to Apple, they're suggestions just make my computer stuffed, iTunes takes over all my programs etc.
Simply put: Does iTunes come with a 32bit and 64bit Install??? If not i won't be using that program.
Which makes it hard for my line of work atm as an Alpha and Beta Games Tester for many Private Platforms i play on.

Well genius, it's either a 32bit or 64bit system, it cannot be both.
Please learn to clearly describe the situation or it is unlikely that appropriate and relevant assistance will be provided.
Keep in mind, these are user to user support forums. The attitude that you spewed above is unlikely to get you any further assistance.

Install Photoshop 32bit AND 64bit

TNS Timeout Error with both 32bit and 64bit drivers installed

I have a server running WIndows 2008 64bit and SQL Server 2012 64bit. I have both the 32bit and 64bit Oracle ODBC drivers installed. 32bit is for SSIS and SSRS uses 64bit. I have an ODBC connection setup for both the 32bit and 64bit. I have the datasources setup for the 64bit and when I test it it works. When I go to run a query I get TNS timeout errors. Any ideas?

Thank you very much, Curt!
It's right: When the 64bit version is running, then the PSDs will be opened by this.
But the configuration under "Bridge Edit/preferences/file type assoiciatons" has the same result as under the "Windows/Systemcontrol/Standardprograms": Never they show the name "Adobe Photoshop.exe (64bit)" - only "Adobe Photoshop.exe" In both cases (Bridge and systemcontrol) I have the possibility to choose the "right" Photoshop.exe by going to the right file (32bit OR 64bit), but the name of the .exe is ever the same: Only "Adobe Photoshop.exe". There is no difference.
And so even if the 64bit version is preferred (in Bridge), the PSD-files will be opened in the 32bit-version, when no one of both versions is running.
But - so or so - you have given me a way to solve my basic-problem!
And when I find the time for experiments, I will show what happens, when I rename the 64bit-exe to "Adobe Photoshop64.exe" to get two different filenames for Photoshop in the Windows-System. (I'm not shure if this will function: When in the Photoshop-System are intrinsic lnks/references to "Photoshop.exe", then I will have no success! Therefore I have to make a HDD-Clone with the whole Windows-System, all Apps and my Working-data before I try to rename. Perhaps there is "no way back to the activation" after renaming the .exe ...
Thank you and kind regards,

I am trying to install CS3 on Windows 8 and keep getting a message saying "the serial number I entered is not valid please enter it again" Does anyone know how to install successfully on Windows 8?

CS3 is unsupported under Windows 8. That said, you'll need to contact Adobe
directly for serial number issues.

How to deploy agent from windows 32bit to 64bit

Hello,
I have installed oem grid on windows 2003 32bit. I have a few remote boxes that are 64 bit windows. How can I use oem grid on 32 bit to deploy agent on the remote 64 bit boxes? I can install agent on 64 bit boxes manually but I want to know how to deploy from 32 bit to 64 bit if possible? Thank you.

First, the bit version of the OEM OMS Host and the Target Agent Hosts is independent, i.e. you can have OMS on windows 32bit and have several 64bit target hosts, where you are running the 64bit agent.
Unless you have a lot of target hosts, I would recommend either manually installing the agents (mount a share with the installation files and run setup locally) or using the agentDownload.
Best regards,

Can 32bit and 64bit clients coexist?

Hello folks,
I have a Windows Server 2003 64bit machine running Websphere 6.0 Express (32bit). Additionally it's running a custom 64bit application. Both apps need to connect to separate 10g databases. Can the 32bit and 64bit Oracle client installs coexist on this machine?
Thanks for any advice!
-Sangamon

To clarify, Websphere needs a 32bit JDBC driver, our custom application needs a 64bit ODBC driver. I've got Websphere working, but I'm having trouble getting the ODBC driver to work. I'm wondering if there's a problem with having 2 clients installed.

Trying to install itunes on windows vista and get the following error message:

Trying to install itunes on windows vista and get the following error message: An error occurred during the installation of assembly "Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKey Token="1fc8b3b9a1e3b",process orArchitecture="x86"". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070424.

A broken Windows Modules Installer then. It's a bit of an involved fix getting past it, but we've had success here with it in the past.
First, I'd strongly suggest setting up a system restore point.
Now try the Scenario III treatment from the following document:
Windows Update Error 80070424 in Vista
Head back into Windows Update and attempt to get updates again. If they still fail, this time with an 8000FFFF error code, try the following Microsoft document:
Windows Update error 8000FFFF
If you get Windows Updates flowing again, stock up on any you're behind on (restarting the PC when requested to do so). This may take some time and may have to be done in several batches, depending on how far you've fallen behind. Basically, keep going back to Windows Update until it stops offering you new updates.
After the updates have been installed, restart the PC one more time (in order to ensure that any pending installs requiring a restart have been resolved).
Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the 0x80070424 this time?
