Install CS3 without CD?

[cckimball]

My computer recently crashed and I am looking to re-install Photoshop CS3 on my new PC. My new PC does not have a disc drive, so I was wondering if it was possible to install CS3 without using the CD?

if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html

and activate with your serial.

if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

Please be aware that Photoshop CS3 may not be fully compatible with newer operating systems on your latest computer.
