reinstall it. run scandisk first.
The thing is, it wont uninstall so i can reinstall, or do you mean reinstall it over whats in there already?
do you mean reinstall it over whats in there already?
yup. as i said though, run scandisk first in case there’s some bad sectors on your drive.
Thanks… i’ll try this out now
Chad,
I’m not sure if it was ACE.DLL, ACELIB.DLL, or both, but there is a support knowledgebase topic on that which, among a few other possibilities, associates that problem with having WinAce installed. If you do, then you might try uninstalling it to see if that resolves your problems. Before doing that, you might try a search first in the support knowledgebase.

I had The exact same error.
I do not have winace installed.
The computer was just upgraded from Win2K to XP Pro.
Photoshop 7.0Me worked just fine on Win2K, and now its
giving me these strange errors.
Also tried to install it on a different drive, to no avail. And as far as I searched, there is no Knowledgebase topic on this issue.
Any help would be great!!!
Thank you.
So… have you reinstalled Photoshop? It’s reasonably painless since it does not overwrite your preferences.
The other thing is that, in general, the rule of thumb with upgrading OS’, is to format then install the upgrade. Some people think that you have to upgrade OVER your existing OS. Not only do you not have to do that, it is not recommended because wierd gremlins from Redmond, WA come out.
Not knowing how you upgraded, I offer the above for consideration.
Food for thought anyway…
Peace,
Tony
Thanks for the tip,
but this is not the case. I had all 5 hard drives
(including system of course) formatted before installing XP. after the XP installation I installed PS, and then the problem started.
I really need to get working here!!!
Anyone??
AnyThing???
Jeeze, this is a pickle. A quick google search of ACE.DLL shows that it may be related to Illustrator 9.0, but that doesn’t seem like it’s so pertinent because your error message is pointing to the Photoshop path. Do you have Illustrator? Maybe try uninstalling it?
I’m stumped. Hopefully someone else will see this and offer help.
Peace,
Tony
Guess What???
Just looked into my Photoshop 7.0Me folder,
and ACE.dll, amongst other .dll files, is 0Kb in size!
Well, I will try to copy these dll files from a working
installation of PS, But I can’t see it working…
Is this the case with you also, Chad?
keep investegating!
Nobody reads post #1 Dave.
And post #11 is ALWAYS too logical, obvious and simple that it flies under the best-solution-radar.
