Photoshop :: Main Monitor
Oct 24, 2008
here are my system specs. Windows XP Pro Sp3. 2GB ram. PS CS4 on a 160GB Raptor (10k RPM). Scratch on a 7500 RPM. 3 monitors (2 on a Dual head Nvidia 7800 GT) and 1 on a single head Nvidia 6800 GT.
Left monitor on the single head Nvidia 6800GT
Middle monitor (my main monitor) and right monitor, on a Dual head Nvidia 7800 GT
Here are the questions:
1. I have not noticed a speed bump with CS4 over CS3. Would it help if I take my main monitor off the Dual Card and put it on its own card. In other words, swap the left and middle monitors so that the left and right monitors are on the Dual Nvidia 7800 GT and the Middle (main) monitor is on the Single Nvidia 6800 GT own card?
2. Should I leave the scratch disk on the slower 7500 rpm separate HD or is it more efficient to put it back on the same Raptor 10k RPM hard drive as the CS4 Program?
3. with not noticing any faster speed, I tried to upgrade from 2GB to 3GB and found out I can not (32 bit OS limitation (can only see 2GB)) from several sources. However, that one is not closed yet because some say a 32 bit OS (Window XP) can see a max of 4GB. I am only throwing question 3 into the mix because if may be a factor. I will be talking to Dell later today.

Why can't I drop a clip in the Program Monitor from the Source Monitor in Premiere? When I try to move a clip from the Source to the Program Monitor, a hand displays with the "circle with a line through it" symbol.

I have Photoshop CS4 installed on my laptop and Photoshop CS4 Extended installed on my desktop (part of Production Suite). I'm experiencing a problem on BOTH systems where the main menu is missing a row of pixels (see image below). Both systems are running Windows XP Pro SP3. I have Open GL disabled on both systems. The weird thing is the missing row of pixels comes and goes while I'm using the application. Has anyone else noticed anything similar?

I am using Photoshop CS4 on a 32bit vista Q6600. When I installed CS4, I had a graphics card based on a 8600GS. Photoshop run fine, even in openGL.
Not I upgraded the graphics card to a 9600GT for better performance. CS4 still starts, but when a photo is loaded, the photo appears correctly in the navigator, but the main window where the photo usually appeared remains grey, as the background. When moving around this window, the photo appear, but as soon as I release the mouse button, the window turn grey again...
When I deactivate openGL in CS4, everything seems to work.
I am having the latest NVidia drivers installed 178.24 (with both graphics cards).
I tried to reinstall the driver, no change.
I tried to reinstall CS4, no change.
getting CS4 work in openGL with this 9600GT?

Is there a way for moving all my open palettes with the Photoshop main window from one screen to another in a single go? It seems a bit awkward that when moving my Photoshop window from screen 1 to screen 2 I have to move every single palette one at a time? And if i save a custom work space and load it when my Photoshop is on my second screen it still places the palettes as they were saved on screen 1 instead of relative to where my Photoshop window is placed.

I can open Photoshop just fine, all the buttons work. I can see everything that I'm doing in the layer preview thumbnail, but all I see on the main design screen is the 'transparent' background. The cursor shows up and looks the part of whatever brush I'm using, but nothing happens on the main screen. I haven't even got a chance to use this version

In Photoshop Elements 11 for Dummies the main display area (Figure 1-2) has an area to the right with the headings Keyword Tags and Information, and down below that Image Keywords. My version of PSE 11, which I just bought, does not show this area to the right of the main display area. Also, the main display area includes a bunch of frames with names like "A_Taste_of_Sicily.mp3". Is this because my version of PSE 11 is different from the version used by the writers of the Dummies book or is there something I need to do first?

The project involves me cutting out pieces of various images, and pasting them into one main image. It was going fine for the first ten or so image pieces, but the last time I tried to do it, something very strange happened.
When I pasted the piece of an image into my main image, it came out red and transparent.why it's doing this because I didn't change anything or do anything differently. What can I do to fix this?

I have just installed Elements 12. I went to open some jpeg images. They appear in the Photo Bin but can't be made to appear in the main window. The Layer Panel shows the background copy of the images.

Everything is calibrated. That is not an issue.
When I work the photo (JPG, TIFF or PSD) to where it is what I want, the preview is darker in the print preview. Probably one f/stop in photo terms. And, THIS is how it actually prints.
What is causing that? And, is there a fix?
None of the "show paper color," etc. are checked, so that is not causing the difference.

photoshop CS2 stoped displaying the red channel correctly on all images. The red channel displays very muted color.
After deleting all preferences of CS2, cleaning out the Windows registry, and upgrading to CS3 the problem still remains.
In CS3 however, the color shift goes away if I drag the image outside of Photoshop's main window.
I have a screenshot of this, http://www.miats.com/tmp/PhotoshopIssue.jpg
Photoshop states that both of the large images are solid R:255 G:0 B:0. However, after print screening the images and pasting them back into Photoshop, it shows that the one on the left is actually R:201 G:88 B:34.
The same thing happens for green and blue as well, though the difference is much less dramatic.
I don't remember changing any settings and my laptop (Win XP, CS2) does not have this problem when loading the same images.
My computer is running VISTA 32bit with 3GB of ram. The graphics card is a NVIDIA 6800.

My ten year old crt is displaying color fluctuations - from calibrated to redish and back again, every few minutes.
I went on line to decide which crt to buy as a replacement and was stunned to find only very low end units offered, I can not find any suitable crt choices.
I need advice as to, are lcd monitors now up to the task for quality editing in Photoshop.
Your expert advice, gained from 1st hand experience will be appreciated.
I've read that the best way to shop for a new LCD is to test out each model 1st - even though I live on the border of Chicago (Evanston), I don't think there is any outlet available where this can be done.
I've also read that LCD makers use differing conditions and benchmarks to rate their contrast ratios.

I'm working on a graphic for a Flash presentation. I've been working in Windows RGB proof setup. Then I realized that when I save as a JPG, it changes color. I spent a lot of time getting the colors on this abstract piece perfect, and don't relish the thought of having to go it again using the Monitor proof setup. Is there a way to convert the way the colors look in Windows Proof to be the same as it looks in Monitor RBG proof?

I have calibrated my monitor with Colorvision Spyder2. Why does Monitor
RGB in Working Spaces in Color Settings dialog indicate sRGB IEC61966-2.1
as profile for my monitor instead of the profile created by Colorvision?
Does this mean that Photoshop ignores the Colorvision profile and uses
its default (sRGB?) instead?
Iam using CS3 and WinXP home.

I am using Photoshop CS4 and I just upgraded to Mavericks. When I opened PS I discovered that all the palettes that normally reside on a second monitor are now all on the same monitor with my PS document and I can’t drag them to the second monitor. It seems that PS does not recognize there is a second monitor there. I can drag documents and palettes from other applications onto this monitor so it appears to be only a PS issue.

There is an vast amount of information on this topic, that topic being LCD monitor calibration. Some LCD have presets, theater, games, etc. I want to calibrate my LCD so that if someone else is viewing my work on their monitor and they complain it is too light or to dark, I can say it is your monitor.
One of my LCD has two presets that are of interest 'standard' & 'sRGB' my other LCD doesn't have any presets. What is the best or near best calibration I can manually set both monitors too, if this is even possible on LCD.
