Paint Shop Pro X1 & NVIDIA Conflict

Paint Shop Pro X1 & NVIDIA Conflict

Greetings

Since updating the graphics driver on my Home Built box to the latest (via 
the MS Update web site) Paint Shop Pro X1 crashes after a few seconds. I 
have sent messages to Nvidia and Corel and neither claim to have heard 
anything of this sort. Has anyone else had this issue?

Thank you.

Info sent to Corel & NVIDIA

Running Vista Home Premium with all the latest patches, a Dual Core AMD 
5000+, 4 GB RAM.  Recently installed the latest driver for the NVDIDIA video 
card, 6150SE nForce 430. Since that time, PSP-X1 crashes within a minute or 
two after starting, whether editing or scanning, or just being open. Suspect 
conflict with new driver.

What follows in the Error Log from Vista.

Faulting application Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo.exe, version 11.2.0.0, time 
stamp 0x45b6df89, faulting module Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo.exe, version 
11.2.0.0, time stamp 0x45b6df89, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 
0x00008d7c, process id 0xde4, application start time 0x01c92612ed82240e.

Re: Paint Shop Pro X1 & NVIDIA Conflict

Many times the drivers offered in Windows Update are NOT the latest drivers. 
What is offered is what the hardware manufacturer submits. Many times the HW 
manufacturer has 2-3 newer iterations of the drivers on their corporate web 
site.

Go there for your drivers for now on.

There is an item in the Corel knowledge base about such a failure with 
dual core PCs and Nvidia cards on install and run of Paint Shop Pro. 
The solution offered is to get the latest driver (178.13 now I believe).
BTW reading between the lines I think Paint Shop Pro X2 Ultimate is the 
first Vista Certified version, at least that is shown as a 'new feature' 
on Ultimate, a bit odd.

I don't know about Ultimate being the first Vista Certified version, but 
I've been running Paint Shop Pro X2 for months now and it's just fine. 
Strange!

Thanks for the excellent suggestions. I'll check out the latest NVIDIA 
driver from the corp
web site first; I'm not sure I need the latest PSP (X2) but will consider 
that if the graphic
update does not work properly.

Re: Paint Shop Pro X1 & NVIDIA Conflict - Update

Greetings

I've tried updating the driver from the NVIDIA web site; it loaded ok but 
that did not solve the problem.
I have also reloaded PSP X1 from the Corel update site, to no avail. Perhaps 
I should try PSP X2? Tom, are
you a Corel Salesman :)

No, just a long-time user since it was JASC and a lot cheaper :-)
I certainly thought twice before buying the upgrade package as it 
contains Painter Essentials which I had already bought - annoying.
The Photo X2 version goes from 12.1 to Ultimate at 12.5 .

You might want to go the other way. PSP9 does everything most folks
need and seems to be stable (not to mention, the browser in v9 is the
last one that was really useable for most of us).
