It seems like you are facing some compatibility issues with your Adobe software on Windows 7. Let's address each of the problems you are experiencing:

Issue 1: Sound Card Driver Error in Premiere and After Effects​

The error message "the currently installed sound card driver does not support Direct Sound Input. Recording audio is not possible" indicates that there might be issues with your sound card driver. To resolve this problem, you can try the following steps:

1. Update Sound Card Drivers:
   • Go to the Device Manager by right-clicking on the "Computer" or "This PC" icon and selecting "Manage."
   • In the Device Manager window, expand the "Sound, video and game controllers" section.
   • Right-click on your sound card and select "Update Driver Software."
   []Reinstall Sound Card Drivers:
   • If updating the driver doesn't work, try uninstalling the driver and then reinstalling it.
   • Download the latest driver for your sound card from the manufacturer's website and install it.

     Issue 2: Window Flickering in Adobe Photoshop​

     The window flickering issue in Adobe Photoshop could be due to several reasons such as outdated drivers, software conflicts, or graphics card settings. To fix this problem, you can try the following troubleshooting steps:
   []Update Graphics Card Drivers:
   • Visit the website of your graphics card manufacturer (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) and download the latest drivers for your graphics card.
   • Install the updated drivers and restart your computer.
   []Check for Windows Updates:
   • Make sure your Windows 7 operating system is up to date by installing all available Windows Updates.
   []Disable Window Flicks:
   • If the issue persists, you can try disabling Window Flicks in the Control Panel.
   • Go to Control Panel > Pen and Touch > Flicks tab, and uncheck the box that enables Flicks.

     Additional Tips:​

     • Ensure that your computer meets the minimum system requirements for Adobe Creative Cloud applications.
     • Consider upgrading to a newer operating system like Windows 10 for better compatibility and support.
     After implementing these solutions, try running Adobe Premiere, After Effects, and Photoshop again to see if the issues have been resolved. Let me know if you need further assistance or encounter any other problems!
