does anyone have an installation file for adobe photoshop 5.

[Lord Zombiac]

This started a long time ago and now I'm getting pissed.
I had CSwhatever and 5.0 installed on my computer.
Either photoshop does not like you running two versions of their software, or some virus screwed everything up.
I uninstalled both programs.
I tried free stuff like photobie and gimp, but their GUIs suck ASS!!!!!!
Example:
I'm in photoshop. I want to do this simple operation-- resize an image. I click on the "image" tab, scroll down to "image size" and go from there... simple.
I'm in photobie. Nothing. There ain't a damned thing anywhere that will allow you to resize your image, and that should be a simple operation.
So, I'm trying to re-install my old 5.0, which works just fine for me, right?
The "setup.exe" file will not launch!
I contact adobe and they give me a song and dance about they don't have any 5.0 shit anymore.
If someone has photoshop 5.0 and can send it to me, I can simply use that file, enter my serial number and get back the software I am familiar with.
I spent three hours already just trying to resize a god damned image.
This is bullshit!
I needs help, ladies and gentlemen!

I'm a cheapass and I use Paint.net. I mainly do shitty WoW model edits and things like that, but it has decent enough utilities, and it's free.

What exactly is the problem? Is the setup.exe corrupted?

[Lord Zombiac]

probably corrupted, it won't launch.

So nothing happens when you double-click it?

(Is it a downloaded file, or on a disc?)

It's a disc, and it is an original disc that I have used to install photoshop 5 on the same computer with the same OS.
It makes me wonder if photoshop puts something in your computer when you uninstall to prevent you from installing a previous version.

I've had problems installing the same version (CS3) on a machine on which I'd previously uninstalled it from. Dunno about previous versions. But it gave me an error, which I Googled, and found a fix for it. Which is why I was asking if there was an error message.

It was a software conflict. Somebody using my computer had installed something called "smart draw" and I couldn't uninstall it. Right away I thought "malicious software," deleted the folder, and used ccleaner to correct registry errors.
It worked.
Now I have photoshop again.
