I tried to install FocalBlade in Photoshop CS3 beta, but it doesn't work. How can I do?

I tried but I think the problem is Win Vista because it works with Win XP...did you try with Vista?

Do you use the 32bit version or the 64bit version of Vista?

I use Vista Ultimate Edition 64 bit. But I installed on Vista 64 bit both CS2 and CS3. Focal Blade works normally with CS2 but doesn't work with CS3 beta. I don't understand why it's ok just with CS2...

What exactly do you mean with "it does not work"? Can you run FocalBlade in Photoshop CS3 under Vista 64bit? Do you get a blank dialog? Or does FocalBlade not appear on the Filter menu in Photoshop CS3.

Focal Blade normally appears in the Filter menu in Photoshop CS3 under Vista 64 bit. But when I click on it in the Filter Menu, CS3 goes in crash and then I must close CS3 necessarily.

Sounds serious. I will investigate it.

Let me know something soon. Because CS3 beta is much faster than CS2 and I would like to use Focal Blade with CS3 too.

Can you please switch off DEP for Photoshop CS3 and restart Photoshop. Here is explained how:

Please let me know if FocalBlade runs now.

I tried. Nothing. Focal Blade doesn't run. I can't understand because it runs normally with CS2 and Vista 64 bit. And other plug-ins as Noise Ninja or Neat Image work fine with CS3 and Vista 64 bit. I have this problem just with Focal Blade.

I just ran Photoshop CS3 under Vista Ultimate 64bit and had no problems using FocalBlade or any of the other PhotoWiz plugins.

So I can only conclude that your problems come from your specific system configuration or condition. I will send you a private email and will try to find out what your specific problem is.

It could be that you have Data Execution Prevention (DEP) activated for all program under Vista. This causes a problem with FocalBlade at the moment. Please activate it only for the system programs.

Haraldheim, thanks.

I have the same problem with Gianluke, and I can use FocalBlade in Photoshop now.
