anyone know what to do? any help is appreciated

[monk]

you getting any problems anywhere else? it doesn't look like a ps thing i've come across, looks more windows based, not nice either way though

[theScreen]

well try to uninstall photoshop and delete all files that contains photoshop files like empty directories...etc. Then restart you computer - wait a little bit and try to reinstall photoshop again. Maybe then it works....

[ddlyassassn]

Monk-havent noticed any other errors

Screen-ill try it later

[templeton]

Reinstall won't help. Try this:

Always the best place to start when PS acts up.

[ddlyassassn]

i thrashed the preferance file...still not working :cry:

[Ardent]

System-Reinstallation? Or try to figure any hardware-errors out.

[daedal.]

Was that the first time you installed Photoshop or has this error just come up one day?

[ddlyassassn]

I am def. not reinstalling the comp. This error occured yesterday night, and i used PS for some time now with out any errors.

im going to try ps 6.0 to see if it works....

[Koobi]

I used to get that erorr but it only happenned once in a way only if i used the Filter>Render>kighting effects filter
doesnt happen anymore though and i think the only thing i did was installl some windows patch from the microsoft website and so like monk said it probably is a windows error so you might wanna try that ddly

[ddlyassassn]

PS 6.0 shows the same message (the message appears when ps launches)

i dont know what kind of problem this is with windows, because everything else seems to run fine..i have win98se...any more help would be appreciated

[Arcane-Dream]

Heh, I have to say, somthing isnt looking to good... I have NEVER seen a program appoligize when it commits an error... you might want to look into a virus scanner...

Anyways, good luck fixing it, and I hope you find a solution.

[digitalmind]

I had that one yesterday actually. I reboot fixed it for me, I still don't have a clue what caused it.

Agreed. Dosent exactly sound like an error the manufacturer would write into such a professional program.

[SeventhVirgo]

It's not a virus. A corrupted file of windows...or you might have an older build of windows98SE. Only thing left is patching your version of windows, updating to ME,2000,XP, or formating your comp(which I don't think you should do).

[ddlyassassn]

thx for the help guys, but i found the problem =) There were 2 corrupt fonts which i found afer looking through all of them. Deleted them and now ps works:grin:

[SeventhVirgo]

Ah was I right? hehe...that's why we're here to help you...lol. I might have said corrupted windows file...which fonts belong under that category.

[pie_man]

iv'e seen that error before in photoshop ... its just a standard one that it gives out when it doesn't know what to tell you!

[digitalmind]

lmao @ pie_man.

kinda like windows does with all its error messages :D

[Alphawallace]

Just delete Photoshop! Restart your Computer and Re-Install from your cd. Photoshop will run again!

I had the same error!

[ddlyassassn]

I already found the problem Alphawallace, and my ps works
