Ok I figured out wat VGA was now I did it to install but now can I put it back to what it was because the setting they need is tooooo small for me too see
my eye doctor says I dont need glasses but I do only have full vision in one eye (when I was three I had a cadarack in my right eye so I had surgery and tho it is improving vision wise I cant see that much from it so I have FULL vision for both eyes as the doctor says in my left eye) So see thats why that seetting is to small so can I change it back since I already installed it?

It still won't work properly...

Umm...what size is your monitor? Maybe upgrade to a bigger one?

The VGA that the installer refers to is your graphics card. I can't imagine a modern computer having insufficient RAM for Photoshop, but your card might not be suitable for displaying the graphics. It sounds that way since you have a small image coming on your screen.

You're also installing a VERY old version of Photoshop. If your computer is new (within the last two years) that version won't run properly. I had to remove Photoshop 6 when I upgraded to XP Pro...and Photoshop is already up to version 9.

I'd uninstall the program and get a more recent version.
