Guest Greatoutdoors Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 I have a Dell Dimension 4600 Series computer, bought late in 2003. It has an Intel Pentium 4 Processor - 2.66GHz and a 128MB DDR NVidia GeForce FX 5200 graphics card. My OS is XP Professional. I recently tried to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 and got an error message saying that I "must have at least VGA" in order to continue the installation. I had installed the application originally on my work machine, but removed it as I decided I should only be using it at home. (Don't know if this has anything to do with it or not.) I have Googled for information and found nothing useful, and found no reference to Photoshop when I did a search of posts on this newsgroup. If I am posting to the wrong newsgroup I would appreciate your directing me to the correct spot. Otherwise, any advice you can offer as to why PS Elements isn't seeing my home machine's video card would be appreciated. :-) Thanks!
Guest Joan Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Re: Adobe Photoshop Elements doesn't see XP video components A google search for "Photoshop Elements 5 installation problems, VGA" answered your question. http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=330755&sliceId=1 It is always best to go directly to the software maker's site to find problems with installation.

Guest Greatoutdoors Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Re: Adobe Photoshop Elements doesn't see XP video components Thanks Joan! I thought I had done that, but I put "video" rather than "VGA." DUH!
