Hello all,
I wonder if I can request some help.
I’m using a Dell Dimension 5150 with a 3 MHz P4, 1 GB of RAM. Scratch Disk is set to a 250 GB external USB Iomega drive, running under XP Pro.
I have no problems using Photoshop. However. my 15 year old daughter, who has a separate desktop on the machine, has suddenly found problrms running the program. It fails to open. It will initialize, hit somewhere areounf "initializing color profiles," and the Program will abort loading. A quick look at tasks shows that it is indeed not running, not running somehow masked in the background.
I’ve reloaded the program (deleting first), removed a few dubious fonts she had installed, run chkdsk, looked at the processes she is running in addition to those I have installed, and I have to admit that I’m baffled. That I should be able to run it, and not her, indicates some problem with her desktop is interfering. Any ideas, please? I have been enjoying seeing her learn how to use the program creatively, and I’m frustrated for her.
Best,
Ted.
