Alright, thanks for all the advice and info! I'll definitely spend some more time working on this, and I'll be sure to reach out if I run into any trouble.
Best,

I just found out today that this isn't actually a Windows 7 beta, but some kind of hacked version of XP. It says windows 7 xp vienna concept +sp3 i386. No idea what that even means... 😕
I think I'll just head back to XP and wait for the official Windows 7 release—we'll see how it goes! That feels like my safest and easiest bet. I spent three whole days installing all my programs and getting everything set up, only to have to start from scratch now. 😵😵😵😠
Does that Windows 7 beta actually support Adobe CS3? It's super important to me that those programs work since they're what I use most often. Everything else on this weird Windows 7 hybrid is running fine—even Corel 13 works without any issues—but when I need CS3...
Also, how does updating even work later on before the official version actually drops?

So, I just finished installing Windows 7 the day before yesterday, and today things started going sideways. I fired up Photoshop CS2, which is super light and shouldn't be an issue at all, but it crashed four times in just ten minutes! Twice it gave me an error along the lines of "not enough RAM to complete the command" (I've literally never seen that happen before!), and twice it threw the following and then immediately shut down.
Any idea what's going on? I'm running 2GB of RAM, with Windows 7 on my C: drive and my documents on D:.
Is this just because it's a Beta Build 7000 and I should just wait it out? Or maybe there's a patch somewhere to fix this?
