Photshop Plugins with Windows 7 64 Bit YIKES

[thatsright]

Right now I use the Silver Efx Pro B&W conversion plugin in photoshopCS4 , installed w/ Windows XP.

I am upgrading my system to Windows 7 64 Bit. I heard that many PSP plugins will not work with a 64 Bit version of Photoshop CS4 So I'm thinking I will have to use the 32 Bit version of photoshop installed on Win 7 64 Bit.

Has anyone been able to make this work, or know if it can to have Silver Efx Pro plugin running in a 32 or 64 Bit version of Photoshop CS4 running on Windows 7 64 Bit??

If I can't get this plugin to work I will be put in a touch spot (use a POS computer that is 6 years old, or hope and pray it will work with Adobe CS5 that comes out in May). I contacted Nik support and I got a very ambiguous answer that didn't tell me when the plugin would be 64 Bit compatible.

I use Win 7 64-bit and have the Adobe CS4 suite installed. It comes with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Photoshop, and both are installed in separate directories. I also had a plugin that was 32-bit only, so it would only work on the 32-bit version of Photoshop.

So yeah, just install the plugin on the 32-bit version of Photosohp and run the 32-bit version of Photoshop when you need to use the plugin. Should work without problems.

The plugin I was using was the OnOne plugin suite.

No clue when Nikon will update their plugs. I like how they word it on the site to get around saying no 64 bit support.

64-bit operating systems with 32-bit host application

So yeah we support 64 bit, if you run the application in 32 bit version
