Pentax RAW plugin for Photoshop



Apologies to the group if this has been done to death.

I have tried to install the Pentax RAW (*.PEF) plugin for Photoshop with no
success. I get an "unable to load preview" (or something like that) error,
then no image at all loads.

I have downloaded at least two different versions from three different
sites - none with success.

I am using Win2000 SP4 (no flames, please) and have tried the plugins with
both Photoshop 7.0 and CS (though not CS2).
The .PEFs are produced with my *1stDS with updated firmware.

I am installing it correctly (dumping the decompressed plugin in the
Import/Export folder.)

Googling this problem yields many, many pages of identical and similar
experiences, but no solutions, AFAICS.

Anybody here had a similar experience (or, better..) got any ideas to solve
it?

TIA
