I haven’t run CS3 on win7 64 but it ran ok on vista64 with some small strange OS problems, I run CS4 with win7 Pro 64 on a desktop and win7 home prem 64 on a laptop with no problems

CS3 will run great in Win7 64, but CS4 you cannot be sure until you install and run. CS4 depends highly on your machine and its components.

Hello Scott George,
It should work just fine assuming your PC is in a healthy condition!

Just an FYI for you.

It is always best to check with the software manufacturer FIRST. They will tell you if they have tested the product and the version, as well as whether or not it will work with Windows 7.
Check out the Windows 7 Compatibility site: (There you will find out about hardware and software compatibility.)
https://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/en-us/default.aspx
There is a pulldown from which you can choose “hardware” and “software”.

There are also some great articles, instructional videos and such to help with your Windows 7 at our Springboard site:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/default.aspx

In any event a lot of the times, Vista drivers will work in lieu of Windows 7 drivers, however, it’s not 100%!

As stated previously, it’s best to have the Windows 7 certified drivers installed.
Thanks again,
John M.
