Hey :D

Post by WindowsXP »

Well, hey guys! I've finally made the switch to Linux after using XP for such a long time, and.. here comes my problem with Wine :/

I can't seem to install Photoshop CS3 with Wine, i've looked all over the internet and can't find my "Error".

I open it with wine, it says it's Extracting, "Blah Blah"

Then it gets to the installation menu and freezes, the window goes black and it gives me the option to force quit.

Any soloutions or anything?

Thanks.

Well, it's probably because this is completely the right place to ask such questions. It's recommended to check the WineHQ AppDB in the future before you ask here though, to avoid unnecessary topics. ;)

It also helps to use a topic that is relevent as well. Something like
"Cannot install Photoshop (PS) 3". That way you get more responses!
