Guys,

This is not a CoD2 problem more so a general enquiry as most of you seem much more computer literate than I.

As most of you are aware I recently upgraded my machine.
Unfortunately I am finding there are some little glitches with using sharp end technology.....

I previously ran a photo editing program Paint Shop Pro X, by Corel to edit my pics. Unfortunately this program conflicts with my new dual core processor.

I have asked Corel for advice and the new nvidia driver they suggested would solve the problem I already have installed???????

The only way I can run it I have been told is to switch off one of my processors..........not an option in my book.

What I would like to know is, does anyone know of a photo editing program which will run on a dual core processor?

Appreciate your help,

Thanks

Brett

I'm running Paint Shop Pro X with the .03 patch, on a dual-core AMD with no problem whatsoever. I am running an ATI board instead of an nVidia though. Can you swap video cards to see if that fixes your problem?

Capt Hans,
Thanks but unfortunately I cannot change the video card.
I tried to install the .03patch but my system just froze and shut down, kept giving blue screen of death warnings so I abandoned my attempts with it.

I am running a brand new nvidia card so I thought the drivers were up to speed.

As for the type of board, I have no idea. I just get the gurus to build the things I don't know whats inside making them work......lol.

Speaking of which maybe the hamster is hungry.

Tks anyway

Hmmm...

Could you try switching off one of your cores, installing the patch, then re-enabling the second core again?

I'm just trying to think of something logical here.

I hate to hear that you're having trouble. I like PSP X so much that I quit using photoshop altogether.
