This is an extension of my previous post. I am having all sorts of trouble with my setup - 32bit windows 7 and 32bit cs6. I have a 2TB hard disk (with 1.7 unused) and 8GB Ram installed. I understand that this setup only has a maximum amount of 1.7GB ram available to CS6 and this may possibly be the problem. (see the attachment) My D800 NEF images are around 40MB each. I get out of ram messages in Photoshop and the same in Bridge. In Bridge the 100% lupe takes forever to activate and eventually after several images it says the 100% lupe is unavailable. What I would like to know is anyone out there using a similar setup and having similar or no problems with the large files? I would change the setup to 64bit if this was the right answer.

I can't see any reason not to use 64 bit. Early on there were issues with no application support and even instabilities but that's two/three generations ago. Your major problem is that you can't upgrade from 32 to 64 bit; you have to reinstall the OS from scratch. Rob |

I know I will have to upgrade the PC to 64-bit - but before I do that It would help to know if anyone is on 32-bit and having no problems. |

I'd recommend a move back to 64 bit version of Windows7 |

Can't speak to windows but Mac 64 bit handles multiple D800 files just fine (16gb ram). Shouldn't be that different from windows now that mac uses basically the same intel chips now. Tom |

I know that Judith was suffering a bit with her CS5 on Windows XP Home (32bit) a while back and she was using D200 NEFs. |

Well - I have now re-installed Win7 64-bit and CS6 64-bit and all is working very nicely and as I would expect it to - so, although I'm a happy bunny now, there was clearly something amiss with my 32-bit setup (out of memory after looking at at a couple of 40MB images) that was never resolved, although I learnt an awful lot on the way! My grateful thanks to all who took the time to respond and to help me get up and running again. I think I can bring this post to an end now. I've no doubt I shall be back! Ken |
