Disk 1 vs Disk 2

Apr 9, 2012 12:31 PM

Did I make a big mistake when I installed PSE10 from Disk 1 instead of Disk 2 on my Win7 64 bit system?  I think those instructions should have been more prominent, perhaps in the Quick Start Guide!

    No, disc 2 is for PRE (trial if all you bought is PSE).

    Sorry I didn't provide more info in the original post.  I bought the 5 disk set of both PSE 10 and PRE 10. While using Disk 1 to install, I noticed in very very small print on disk 2 that perhaps I should have used disk 2 since my system is Win7 64 bit.  So was that a big mistake?  It appears to be working fine so far at least.  Thanks

    No, PSE is always 32 bit. In the five-disc set disc 2 is for PRE for 64 bit windows.

    On Windows 64 bit you should have started with disk 2 and then disk 4 to add the content for Premiere Elements. Disk 2 will install both programs.

     

    As Barbara says PSE is only 32 bit so no need to worry. I suggest you run disk 2 and start the installation again. If PSE is working fine it should be automatically recognized without needing to be overwritten. Or simply select PRE in the set-up options.

     

    Once you have both programs running use disk 4 to install the SD and HD content if you intend to use the instant movies and themes.

     

    You can check afterwards that all is OK. PRE will be found in C:Program Files\Adobe and PSE will be found in C:Program Files (x86)\Adobe.
