| 750156 | 2009-02-22 02:49:00 | I'm looking for a good photo editing software and heard good things about adobe photoshop elements 7. So I downloaded the free 30 day trial. I found that it took forever for a photo to open in the program...compared to my old software I used. I was wondering if this was just because it was the free version and if once I buy the software this problem will improve? I use it for work...so I don't want to spend the money if this issue isen't better because it uses up too much of my time and I'm constantly working with numerous images. Thanks Suzanne |

| 750160 | 2009-02-22 20:44:00 | Elements is a very good program for editing photos. It runs fine on my PC which is a dual core, but not top of the line. It does require a lot of memory though if working with multiple photos, 2GB just doesn't cut it :) | autechre (266) | ||
| 750161 | 2009-02-24 14:34:00 | Thanks for the replies guys. My computer is brand new. HP pavilion dv5 notebook PC, intel core 2 duo CPU processor, 4GB, 64 bit operating system with vista. I have tons of room. I'm not a gamer and just use it for work. | Suzanne (4502) | ||
| 750162 | 2009-02-24 19:56:00 | You can get a free trial of Corel X2 from here:- www.corel.com It is what I use under Vista X64. |

I have tons of room. I'm not a gamer and just use it for work. That should run Elements just fine. It should only take a few seconds to open a photo. The RAW files from my camera that i've taken so far are around 15-20MB and open in a second or 2. If i'm trying to open more than 1 at once though it can slow down a little. |

| 750164 | 2009-02-24 20:25:00 | Yeah, I have no idea why it takes so long. I have only tried to open one photo at a time and it takes like around a minute for each to open...which takes forever when working with a lot of different photos. And these are images that have already been minimized. | Suzanne (4502) | ||
| 750165 | 2009-02-24 21:29:00 | Prob cause you're running vista:p Post a HijackThis log here and see if we can remove seom crap:p |
