My last few posts got me thinking. My wish for a hack to run PS under ME's responses, and the fact that I ran my system as a WinXP system before I got my soundcard, which XP did not play nice with at all. Under ME, however, it flippin juices. Low low latency, high quality recording and playback, and dual soundcard functinoality (while running under Mme, not ASIO). When the semester ends, I shall be reinstalling XP as a tri-boot system, unless of course there are some good ways at increasing Photoshop 7's speed under win98/me based systems. The only thing that actually bugs me, is when bringing up the Blending Options window. If I could get that sped up, I'd be hella pleased, as everything else seems to run quite alright. I had problems under XP (which might not have been XP related) with mouse and wacom strokes being straight edged instead of smoothe (as others in the forum also noted. Adobe didn't answer ya really did they Scott? Those arseholes...). anywho, yeah, tweaks for PS under 98/ME anyone? I've checked a few of my fav tweak sites, and done some quick searches, but found nothing really regarding Photoshop tweaks of any kind for any OS... ry
