    I have an older version of Photoshop 6.0 I've used with Windows 98 for several years, when I got a new Compact Presario with AMD 64, I con't install my photoshop 6.0 from my disk. I get a window that asks me what I want to do but the choices do not include install. only play, find pictures, copy disc, open folder to view files, print pictures, etc.

    I've opened the folder to view the files but there are so many that I don't know which one I should select to install. Help.

    Welcome to MG. :)

    What methods have you tried to install it? Do you have autoplay turned on for instance so it would automatically try to install. Have you explored the Photshop CD to see if it has a setup.exe file or an Autoplay.exe file (like Photoshop 7 has)

    Thanks, I have tried several of the setup.exe files and finally found one that was subtitled "installer" and it worked. I had tried some (there are 13) setup files before but never found the right one before. Glad you urged me to try again. Thanks.
