Photoshop CS4 won't install.

Has anybody else had trouble installing it?
I use Vista Premium x64.
It worked when I had x32 installed though, so my computer can handle it.

Try Program Files instead of Program Files (x86). Use the administrator account to install it.

Thanks. I'll get back to you with the results after I've tried.

Edit- I can't change where it installs Photoshop to.

custom install. Uninstall first then custom install. I have CS4 and Lightroom 2.3 both x64.

Re: Photoshop CS4 won't install.

Photoshop isn't on my system though, anywhere.
I checked Program files & Program files (x86)
How would I do a custom install then?
I've got After Effects & Flash, both CS4, running on my PC.

This is the error I get at the end:

Adobe CSI CS4
Error:
Error 1603. Fatal error during installation.

You had the trial install. OK. Do a uninstall of CS4. When you reboot and reinstall the trial, it will have a custom install mode. You can change the default drive and path.

Re: Photoshop CS4 won't install.

I still couldn't change the install path.
I've partitioned my drive, 500gb is for x64 & the other 500gb is for x32...if I installed CS4 on the x32 partition, would I be able to use it when I run the x64 os?

You have to install each application on both OS. I custom install all my Adobe products. There is a custom install method.
