I have been using adobe photoshop 7.0 for more than 2 months now and since a couple of days ago the whole program won’t even start. I have not changed any software or hardware, no new drivers and no new peripherals
whatsoever in the last 2 weeks (new drivers for my videocard/motherboard windows update.)
I uninstalled 7.0 and installed 6.0 after deleting all the old preferences and setting which did’nt help much. I uninstalled every adobe program i
have which did’nt work either. I even deleted all the icc profiles photoshop had installed, again to no effect.
After scanning the windows registry and deleting all adobe/photoshop keys, uninstalling photoshop again and rebooting several times, the program still does’nt work.
3 days ago i formatted my hard-drive and installed windows 2000 with all the latest drivers and updates. At this point i made a fallback backup with norton ghost so i could reinstall everything again easily.
Again, photoshop did not startup.
I went to my local hardware shop to check my RAM (2×512 MB PC3200) which checked out just fine, hard drives came out fine, so did my motherboard (temperatures where fine as well, no overclocking etc.)
Yesterday i formatted my hard drive again and installed the backup i had made a few days ago with Photoshop 5.5 LE.
AGAIN photoshop did not startup, windows just gave me an error message that the program had generated an error and was closed by windows.
I checked my logbook for any DR.Watson entries but i could’nt get any info from the error message (lots and lots of hex-code)…
Photoshop starts up, maximizes the ps screen, i get no logo, no loading info (logo with the modules loading icc/fonts etc.)
My specs are:
Windows 2000 SP4 All updates installed / DX-9 / IE 6.01
ASUS A7N8X-DELUXE dual channel configuration, no overclocking AMD ATHLON 2800+ 333 (barton)
2 X 512 MB DDR PC3200 RAM (samsung)
1 X MAXTOR 40 GB 7200 RPM D9 SERIES LB
1 x MAXTOR 80 GB 7200 RPM D9 SERIES LB
ASUS GEFORCE FX 5200 128MB RAM
SAMSUNG SYNCMASTER 955DF
please help 🙁
