Photoshop 7 Wine Problem Not the Usual


Ive been trying to install Photoshop 7 under wine ive seen several places saying that it works now. Im using wine 20031212. When i try to install it, it gives me "This operating system is not supported by this installation. For nt 4 you must have service pack 6a or greater". Now i know alot of people have this problem ive looked it up and the fixes say to change the nt 4 line in the config to win98 which ive done but im still getting that error. I can find no where else in the config where it mentions nt 4 so i dont know how else to go about fixing this problem. Has anyone else seen this. Supposedly changing the version line to win98 works but for some reason its still seeing mine as nt4.

-I tried rebooting.
-I tried restarting the wine service

any other suggestions?

Yep seen franks corner but the directions dont work unless it has something to do with fedora maybe red hat prevents programs from working kinda like how they dont include mp3 support with their xmms

What could also be a problem is that they (Frank's corner) user wine version 20030813, while you are using 20031212. Wine is the world's champion of fixing one thing in a new version, and breaking another that was previously working perfectly

I have been 100% sucessfully in installing Photoshop 7. I used WineX3 Version 3.1+.

You may find it easier to use Transgaming Point2Play program to do the install.

With CrossOver, I have found a problem with install as well, so I'd sugestion using Point2Play till they get there little thing fixed.
