I have 64bit XP and 64bit Photoshop installed. I have the latest driver from asus and OpenGL is dimmed in the "Performance" tab under preferences. I installed the Photoshop update but when i look in "About Photoshop..."Â it shows 11.0 as the version. I have the ASUS EAH4850 512MB DDR3.

As the EeePC does not come with a DVD drive and I won't be able to bring one with me on the trip, may I ask you how I can install my existing software (which is all on CDs, here in Australia) on the ASUS while I'm in the US.
when I installed my Photoshop 7.0 software (which is on a Photoshop upgrade disk) on my Dell desktop computer, during the installation process, the CD software asks me to load my Photoshop 6.0 disk to verify that I have the original full version of Photoshop 6.0 which is required to install the Photoshop 7.0 upgrade. This I did on the DELL and all went smoothly. Before I leave for the US, I'll uninstall Photoshop from my DELL desktop computer.
Would there be some way to copy the Photoshop 6.0 and 7.0 disks onto a USB flash memory drive so that they can be installed from that. But what would happen when the installation process asks for the Photoshop 6.0 disk to be installed? In other words how would I direct the installation process to the Photoshop 6.0 disk copy on the USB memory drive?
I'm running photoshop on my Asus eee pc but I have it running on an Acer Aspire 5670 monitor (bigger screen makes it easier for my retouching work!) and whenever I shutdown photoshop my screen gets a little bit bluer.
I can fix it by doing a recalibration but it's still kinda annoying because I don't always remember to do it and I'm sure you can understand that trying to get skin tones right when your screen is blue can be an utter.
Okay getting completely irritated with these issues of overheating when I even just am rendering a video to get ready for export (and also on exporting)
Â
I have tried setting power controls to the CPU to 80% but using SpeedFan I can see the CPU usage still spiking 90%-98% and heating just keeps rising and rising til shutdown.Idle CPU
Â
-Rendering Usage in Balanced Power Settings
-Rendering Usage in High Power Settings
I really suck at understanding these things. But changing from Balanced to High Power didnt seem to affect the rendering times. But also the time was down at like 20-40 minutes before I started messing with the power controls now its at over 2 hours.

Finished a small render with success but it got pretty hot again and Norton pops up saying High CPU usage by PPro. 100% was hit quite a bit too
Brand new computer, 32-bit XP, 4GB RAM (sorry, but too many of my important programs don't run on 64-bit), Intel 9650 quad, 3.0 GHz, RAID array, etc. And an ATI 4850 graphics card with 512 MB DDR3 RAM (on the Adobe tested list) and it doesn't work properly with OpenGL turned on: brush lines do not complete until I start another line, or click someplace in the image (which creates another line!); preview for the stamp tool doesn't work (there is no preview); 'ghost' panels over the image stay there even when they're moved (a mouse click is needed to make them disappear). Animated zoom works (nice feature), flick panning does (not really needed), birdseye view does (also nice feature), rotate canvas does (not needed that I can see), pixel grid (might be useful); I haven't tried the others. Bottom line: if I turn OpenGL off, it works fine, but those features are absent. I've been updating my drivers as ATI has (they've done several in the past month or so),
I don't know how the beta testing was done or how this card could be on the approved list, but someone fell short.

I have been trying to use the 3D features of Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended and have been having no success. I have enabled the 'Use Graphics Processor' in the Edit->Preferences->Performance dialog box. I have also ensured that I have the latest version of the drivers installed. The video cards (in a CrossfireX configuration) are Sapphire HD Radeon 7970s. The thing is, when I installed Photoshop a few weeks ago, I tested the 3D functions and they worked fine. Now they no longer do so. I have updated video drivers and Photoshop since then but when I reverted back to the older drivers, the 3D features still didn't work. I have tested OpenGL in Modo 601 and Houdini FX 12 with no problems.

And very old bug on all versions of CS6 for win.When the rullers are visible, try to shake the canvas with, for example, hand tool to left-rigth. The rulers will be cracked with artefacts.

main bugy-feature is thaе the contrast of path`s lines is very poor on noisy midle gray areas, even when the antialiasing is off.
i did notice a lag (almostac ceptable, passable) using the brush tool , painting black and white on the maskes..i tried different video card from nvidia to ati , but did not find a real solution..the only solution is set the opengl off or set to basic,

I've verfied that OpenGL is on, and my video card drivers for my ATI 7970 are up to date. I've also tried CS5 and the CS6, with no luck.
Just curious what is the difference between Basic, Normal and Advanced OpenGL modes? I know Advanced method is more "GPU intensive" but how can I see the difference?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just upgraded from PS CS3 to PS CS4 (default 32 and 64 versions) and I'm having problems with seeing image files above a certain size (even moderate size) with OpenGL Drawing enabled. Disabling OpenGL Drawing results in very slow image display (very easy to see the blocks being drawn one at a time), much slower than with PS CS3.
I'm running Vista 64 with latest updates. I'm trying to get PS CS4 32 running properly first, but PS CS4 64 seems to be having similar problems.
GeForce 9600 GT video card with latest driver 178.24 (updated yesterday and rebooted many times since then). That card is in Adobe's list of tested cards.
Main monitor (where I display Photoshop images) selected as primary in the driver dialog.
I put palettes/panes on my 2nd monitor.
I use Ultramon for 2nd monitor taskbar functionality. Turning Ultramon off doesn't seem to help, although I may need to disable Ultramon from launching on reboot.
No plugins installed yet in PS CS4 (32), as per Adobe kb advice.
4GB of RAM with Memory Usage set within Photoshop's Ideal Range.
For testing, I've been opening a few different size (px and bytes) RGB image files in Photoshop by dragging them from an Explorer window into the Photoshop window, then clickin in the Photoshop window to make Photoshop active and show its palettes.
First with OpenGL Drawing enabled in Performance, default Advanced Settings.
JPEG, 3600 x 2600 px, 4.5MB
- opens and displays ok (short delay before palettes appear)
- zooms and rotates smoothly
TIFF, 2 layers, 800 x 600 px, 16 bits, 2.5MB
- opens and displays ok (short delay before palettes appear)
- zooms and rotates smoothly
TIFF, 1 layer, 3600 x 2600 px, 16 bits, 54MB
- doesn't open properly, shows checkerboard instead of image, with checkerboard in navigator and layer icon in layers pane
- histogram is fine
- zooming and rotation are not smooth (jumps to new position/size)
- duplicate layer caused PS CS4 to stop working, with a close program dialog
- open PS CS4 32 again, no OpenGL message today, and OpenGL Drawing is still enabled (although I got the OpenGL Drawing message more than once yesterday)
TIFF, several layers, 3600 x 2600 px, 16 bits, 306 MB
- doesn't open properly, shows checkerboard instead of main image
- icons in layers pane look fine, same as navigator image
- checkerboard zooms and rotates smoothly
- duplicate layer is still checkerboard, back one history state stopped working / close program dialog
- started PS again, opened 1 layer TIFF, closed and tried to open multi layer TIFF again, but stopped working / close program dialog again
I then tried the same images with OpenGL Drawing disabled in Performance.
3600 x 2600 px JPEG
- ok, but slow, blocky redraw
2 layer 800 x 600 px TIFF
- ok, but slight delay in redraw (smallest of all the files, both in px and bytes)
1 layer 3600 x 2600 px TIFF
- opened ok, but slow, blocky redraw
multi layer 3600 x 2600 px TIFF
- opened ok, but slow, blocky redraw
From what I've read in various Adobe kb notes, it sounds like there's some kind of conflict with my video driver, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I even tried the registry plugin from the Adobe kb to disallow OpenGL Windows, but that didn't seem to make any difference. It didn't even stop me being able to select and use OpenGL Drawing in PS CS4.
I have to go into the prefereneces every sodding time to enable the GPU support.. I have the latest gfx drivers XPsp3, 8800gtx, Photoshop seems incapable of just working properly, I suppose I could ignore the error message, but it would still leave me to have go turn the stupid poor feature back on... which does actually work, but PS seems to think it needs disabling after I close the program.. wtf
btw I did follow adobes crap support docs on this issue...
*****************************
"3. Update your GPU drivers and then turn on Enable OpenGL Drawing.
If Photoshop crashes or disappears because of a GPU problem, it turns off Enable OpenGL Drawing and it writes a flag file in the preferences folder, called GPUinitcrashed. The next time you open Photoshop, this warning displays: "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the Performance panel of Preferences."
Download the most recent version of your display driver from the display card manufacturer's site (Windows) or check to see if there's an operating system update (Mac OS).
Important: If you turn on Enable OpenGL Drawing before you update your driver, then Photoshop uses the old display driver again. If the driver wasn't updated, then Photoshop fails again. If you do not turn on Enable OpenGL Drawing, then the GPU won't be accessed and Photoshop does not fail.
***************************
I have a problem with CS4 under XP 64 bit. The 'Enable OpenGL Drawing' checkbox in the preferences is grayed out. I have a Radeon 4580 card which should work with CS4.
I recently had Vista 64bit installed and there was no problem there... OpenGL worked just fine in CS4, just as it should.
But I can't get it working in XP64. I've installed the latest drivers but still nothing.
When I have been working on a document for a few minutes, Photoshop suddenly disable the OpenGL features such as the Rotate View Tool. OpenGL does still seem to be enabled in Edit>Preferences>Performance...
I think the disabling happens when I use the Brush Tool.
If I save, closes and re-opens the document, the features are back. (I just created an action for this)
My video card is a NVIDIA GeForce 6700 XL with updated drivers.
I have just installed Photoshop CS4 Extended and am looking to enable the OpenGL Drawing function but it is greyed out. I have Dell Precision t5400 with Quad core Xeon E5410, 2gb RAM, Club 3D 8800GTS 640mb RAM graphics card on XP Service pack 2. I just updated the graphics drivers from nVidia and downloaded the AllowOldGPUS_ON.reg and restarted the PC. The option to Enable OpenGL Drawing is still greyed out.

I am on Windows XP SP3, NVIDIA 8800GTS. The OPENGL Drawing in Photoshop CS4 works fine, but a lot of times, when i start photoshop, it'll say that OPENGL Drawing is disabled and i'll have to go in to preferences and re-endabe and restart photoshop again to get it working.
I've got Photoshop CS4 up and running on my laptop, but no matter what video settings/drivers I use, I'm unable to get the harware acceleration working so Photoshop uses the video card to speed up operations. I've got the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT with the latest drivers from Dell.
Anyone else get acceleration working with their XPS laptop, or 8600M video card?
I just installed the CS4 Photoshop and have a major issue which makes it impossible for me to use cs4. I used to work with cs3 on the same machine and had not a single problem: Even though I disabled the OpenGL Feature I have an about 100 pixel redraw when I use a brush. Everything else is fine! When I turn OpenGL on it gets even worse. Is there any solution for this? (Yes I already downloaded the latest drivers and downloaded the patch and resteted all settings)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently got a new computer and loaded my Photoshop CS4 on to it and the features of Open GL such as holding down the z key and using the scroll on the mouse to zoom in and out and also the left and right bracket key inceasing or decreasing the size of the brush do not work. The new computer is using Windows 7 64 bit and has an AMD quad core with 8 Gb RAM. I checked to make sure that Open GL is selected in the Edit>Preference>Performance where it also tells me that the graphics card does support accelerated graphics for Open GL.Â

I have enabled 10 bit within Catalyst and went to Preferences Performance to enable the 'Advanced" mode of OpenGL only to find it grayed out. I searched and read where others had had similar issues though most were on a 64 bit system. OpenGL version is 6.14.10.10795.

I use Photoshop CS4 for freelance work, and one of the tools I like to use is the Rotate tool. When I first got my desktop and installed Photoshop, everything worked fine. However, recently I was forced to perform and factory restore on my desktop due to a virus.
Â
Today I started working on something and when I tried using the Rotate tool, it was not working (I go that error window saying it wasn't enabled). I checked the OpenGL settings to see it was enabled. Confused, I restarted Photoshop and tried again with no luck.
Â
This turned into a search around the internet to see just what is going on, but the only thing I could find was suggesting updating drivers for my graphics card and Adobe, which I have tried with no success. I have found out that some people were having the same trouble as me, but what makes my case odd is that it was working fine before the factory restore.
OpenGL support does not seem to be working on PhotoshopCC. The HUD color picker does not appear and when I try to rotate the canvas, a message pops up that says the rewuest could not be completed because it only works with OpenGL enabled windows.
Â
I have two NVIDIA Quadro K600 cards (with up to date drivers), a Cintiq monitor and a new Dell workstation. I'm using the trial version of Photoshop CC. (I had to replace my computer recently because the old one died, and rather than reinstalling CS4 I decided to try CC and see how I liked it)
Â
My machine is a powerful graphics computer, so it ought to be able to handle OpenGL. Under Preferences / Performance I do have "Use Graphics Processor" checked, but it does not work.
I just updated my photoshop to the latest version provided in the application manager.
i created a 3D document in front, had no problems except 1 crash while working with 3D layers.now it won´t let me open this psd becaus Open GL is not activated.
Using Ps CS5 12.04 on win7x64, 12GB, Radeon 6780 1GB, dual HDD and dual monitors since last Oct when I bought this new PC and its always been fine with openGL even with extensions added and dual monitors in workspace setup.Still worked same most of the time while I also had CS6 Ps beta installed and running...CS6 always ran openGL et al in advanced mode just fine.
Â
But when beta ended I uninstalled CS6 beta (correctly following Adobe advice)...and now CS5 does not run openGL...unless I reset prefs (ctr+alt+shift) at startup...then it runs fine. I can even switch to my custom user workspace and it continues just fine (except certain prefs are now reset...like second hard drive use and mouse wheel zoom etc.) until I close Ps.
Â
But when I close and restart Ps for next session; the setup starts as left but openGL not running again. It is a repeatable startup cycle if I want the advantages of openGL.
Â
I tried deleting/turning off all (2) extensions except Kuhler (may have to try that) (I have no plugins in x64). Made no difference.
I can't enable OpenGL drawing.I'm using Windows 8 64bit.I've updated my video card drivers multiple times.I've reinstalled Photoshop.I've restarted my computer.I know for a fact that my card (ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870) can use OpenGL because I have used it on this exact laptop before.

How do I enable OpenGL drawing? The box is grey and unclickable and it says I need to update my video drivers.
