The trick here is to be sure you have a layer filled with your foreground color (don't ask me why, but at least in PS 6 this only works with a layer completely filled with the foreground color) Then, with that layer active, activate your rulers. Be sure "Snap" is checked under the View menu. Drag a horizontal guide from the top ruler; it will snap to the center of the document. Do the same with a vertical guide; it will also snap to the center.

Here it does work in PS7.01, but not only with the foreground colour, but also with the standard opening of a white doc, and the background colour too, and also at the top/bottom, or left/right hand side.
Namvet, would you mind trying it again?
Open any new doc
activate View>Show>Guides
activate View>rulers
activate View>snap
with the move tool, gently click on the ruler and drag downwards from the horizontal ruler (top) and you will (should) feel a slight hesitation towards the top/centre/bottom. Unclick and the guide snaps to the top/centre/bottom.
The same applies for the vertical ruler.

try toggling Ctrl+;, the bars/guides should appear and disappear.
also try clicking on them and dragging from them...

Almost... the graduated bar is the ruler... CTRL+R
From there you can create guides...
It is not possible to show/hide guides unless you create one, as Erik pointed out by click/dragging from the ruler. ..
