One is connected through the HDMI port, the other through the VGA, Just went to my 'off site office', where I still have a dual monitor setup.

I saw no reason for the audio programs to affect this graphics program.

The program was running with the current monitor set-up.

The program was running with the current AV solution.

I had no reason to believe any of this would have any effect,

disconnect monitors and use only built in monitor.Īgain.

Tried further steps this evening, even though I doubted they would do a thing. While I do have the disk/drive space it may not be contiguous. My understanding that defragging an ssd is not recommended,

two external monitors (one landscape hdmi, one portrait vga).

Program compatibility settings: Run this in compatibility mode for WinXp Svc Pack 2

None of this has changed since it was last working.

External USB3 Drive for data - Seagate goflex 1.5Tb, with about 3/4 free.

Boot Drive is Samsung 830 class ssd (224gb, with 100gb free).

(Other than scrapping the program, and replacing with Elements, Gimp, etc)

setting max and min both to 64 meg (per advice found elsewhere).

increasing the custom paging file size to 10x as much (yes I have the room!).

and as I recall, this program is quirky in requiring contiguous space!Īnd I think this was what I adjusted initially in order to get in functioning.

System->Advanced->Performance->Settings->Advanced-Virtual Memory -> ChangeĬhanging my virtual memory settings as Photodeluxe does use significant space.

Delete/rename the existing program prefs file.

What I have I tried, in the effort to resolve? Not sure how that should have affected anything though.Īs Audacity and Ezvinyl would affect sound more than graphics, Well, I added 'Audacity' and EZVinyl, for recording (and manipulating the waveforms) of old LPs. What is different from yesterday / last time used? successfully, on all.īut today I have a problem. I have successfully used it on Win 98, WinME, Win2k, WinXP (all service packs),Īnd now on Win7 - YES. (version 4)Īnd I successfully migrated it, to each subsequent OS I have used. It has remained a workhorse for me, and I have upgraded it. (I may have been using Win95 at the time)

Obviously designed for earlier versions of Windows. I started using Photodeluxe when it was packaged with one of my early scanners.

This is a question about tweaking system settingsįor smooth experience of old software on more recent OS and hardware. Please note, this is not a question about replacement software packages.
