Subject: CS3 - Does NOT show the window that holds the picture..so I can't work in it

Hi, never had this problem before.
I run XP Pro 64Bits /I have two monitors Samsung working together and had use this very same CS3 for centuries in it and NO problems at all..
Now I open ANY file or even create a new file the CS3 has the file in it, because I can see the file in 'navigator', the layers in the its place and can also modify whatever In it but I CAN'T TAKE THE FILE AND MANAGE IT AS I USE TO..like its only in small 'thumb' vision of it..
Hard to explain ...
It's like you know the file is there OPEN in CS3 but you can't see it or use it. Only open and close

Anyone can give me a clue?
'Already looked up Forum at Adobe but so far nothing like that..mostly CS4 stuff.
I have Nvidia GTS8800 - also looked in Nvidia forum..nada!
Thanks to tell me -  if you know how do I fix it.

Kinda sounds like a problem I had in Illustrator a few years ago... Turns out I 'accidently' dragged my window to the far side of my screen while cleaning my mouse, leaving me with only a tiny pixel showing the edge of my frame. After some time my eye caught it, but I came pretty close to re-installing the lot. On a mac you could try exposé to check for a window that 'wondered off', but XP doesn't have that, so maybe try a re-install anyway...

Good luck

Coming soon

well thanks - but not a lot! :)
But it not my actual problem...the others software are ok and no 'piece' of window is far from the eye.
I had also repair it with the cd..nope..nothing changed!
I had not a clue where in CS3 is the 'point' of make the window visble again.
Now the only thing left is turn off one monitor and see if its that the problem..(snce I use a 2 graphics cards and 2 monitors could be something in it..)
I'm lost of ideas...

Just for the FAQ - the problem I found out is graphic card relatred.
When I enable SLI - CS3 will work normal again.
Disable SLI wont show the picture in it!
