The original Photoshop 7.0 (not elements) will not save any files to disk.

Hi all,
I have a new desktop computer with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
It has a: 120GB SSD Drive for the system and program files
and a 2TB SATA Hard Drive for the data files.

The original Photoshop 7.0 (not elements) will not save any files,
it reports the disk is full, when the 2TB SATA Hard Drive has 1.66 TB
Free space.

I think I can remember someone saying that Photoshop 7 .0 cannot see
a large drive space?
If I partitioned the drive into two separate drives would that be ok
for Photoshop 7.0 to see?
Any thoughts on size, if made into two they would each be under a TB

Thanks for any help,
Mick.

Computer system:
Novatech Black NTA31 - AMD FX-8 8320
16GB DDR3 1600Mhz Memory
120GB SSD Drive
2TB SATA Hard Drive
Radeon R9 270 2GB Graphics
600w PSU
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Operation system.

I am amazed that you could even get PS7 to run on a W7 machine. I did
mot think you would still have OS support for PS7 beyond 32-bit Win XP.

My own copy of PS7 (Mac) wasn't able to make the transition from Mac
OS7 to OSX which was when I bought CS2.

I suspect that you have squeezed your money's worth out of that copy of
PS7 and it is time to put it out to pasture.

Some programs don't work when split over two or more drives.
Try this:
Save your files to C:
or
Uninstall PS from C:, then install on the SATA drive.

Hi,
The good part of Photoshop 7.0 is tool presets can be saved and
corrections made manually to suit!

I have Photoshop Elements 8, but adjustments seem to be only by auto
means, I prefer to do them by eye.

....and that is true for all subsequent versions of Photoshop, but the
advances in PS since 1998 are substantial and worth exploring if you
are in anyway serious about photo editing. I would also suggest taking
a look at Lightroom 5.

I can't speak for PSE8, but you should have a reasonable ability to
make adjustments. Again with PSE8 you are dealing with a program that
is at least 7 years old, the current version being PSE12.

Without any insight into your financial situation I would say your
solution is to consider some sort of software update to match your
computer update.

You can only beat a dead horse for so long.

I read that the scratchdisk needs to be on a partition under 1TB

Indeed. I got PS7 for free with a Minolta film scanner over a decade ago...

If you got the full version of PS7 that must have been a good deal...
I paid a fortune for it when it first came out.

Did you install it as a 32 bit program?

If so,here is a link to a comment hat you may need to partition your drive.

As an alternative, use a USB3 drive under 1T.

I got a copy of PS LE bundled with a scanner, and that had a reasonable
upgrade path to PS7. Then along came OSX and the logical move for me
was to CS2. I balked on CS as I was still running Mac OS7.9 when that
was released, and CS2 was a really big step up.

I think my wife is using CS4 now
but even the old PS7 had way more features than I needed.

Save them to a drive that works. What about a SD card? If still too
large, format that with a partition smaller enough to be "seen" by
your software.
Then, manually move the saved file to the place you want. Inverse
operation when you want edit the saved file. Or use the SD as your
disk

Hi all,
The 2 TB Hard drive was partitioned into two today, and
Adobe Photoshop 7.0 is now saving files to the hard drive ok.
Thank you for your help.
