Question PSP8 & Adobe on CD ?
I am running out of hard drive space and would like to run my Adobe Photoshop and PSP 8 off of a home-made CD, in XP Home. I have tried simply dragging the entire folder over and burning it to CD and find it does not run. ( Missing Python Libraries? ) Is there a away to do this so I can remove the entire program from my hard drive? What about registry entries?

Dont even consider it. Hard drives are so inexpensive today that the mere thought of running an applicationlike Photoshop from a CD drive is crazy.

I doubt that either one of them will run from the CD.
The real question though is: Why would you try to run them from "home made" CDs?
The programs are both large (compressed on the CD) and would not run with out being "un-packed" and installed. You can't just move them and expect them to run.

Sounds like you need a slave hard drive or transfer to a bigger one.

I bigger drive will be best. I do have Adobe Photoshop 7 on a CD and it does work. It is very slow and you get a error starting it about not finding the the temp file but it makes a new one. But the CD was one my sister got from someone and it has a copy of the windows folder and some other folder on the CD. But like I said it runs to slow.
