Firefox CS3 is running very slow on Vista Home Premium 64 bit.

New Gateway AMD Phenom quad-core (2.3 Ghz quad) with 8 GB of Ram.

The rest of the CS3 suite works fine, but there's a delay every time I do
anything in Fireworks.

I upgraded from 4 GB of Ram to 8, thinking that might make a difference. But
the problem remains essentially the same. I've gotten all Adobe updates, but
nothing seems to solve it. Originally, I thought it was a matter of having
other programs open that was bogging it down. But even when it's the only
program open, it runs slow.

I was wondering if there are some other setting I need to change, or what...
The last Macromedia version of Fireworks ran much faster on my XP system with
less power and Ram, so this just doesn't make sense...

Any tips are appreciated. Thanks!

64 bit? Umm...hmm.

First, other people have mentioned problems with FW CS3 on Vista compared to
either running on XP or other CS3 apps on Vista, so you aren't alone.
Unfortunately, nobody seems to be able to pin down the conflict. Possibly AV,
but (if I remember correctly) the other person who posted about FW CS3 being
slow didn't see an improvement when he turned his AV off.

You might try turning off Aero for Fireworks, that s with the bitmap
tools. If it's some other conflict, then it's going to be a matter of
experimenting.

I'm running Vista Home Premium 32 bit, and I don't notice any trouble with FW
CS3 (well, except for the bitmap tools, which I don't use so I haven't bothered
turning off Aero). My AV is NOD32, though, and it's one of the smallest, most
nimble AVs out there.

suggestion were of but i am not satisfied copletely. i need for information on fixation of the issues. thanks
