Hi, Hope that someone on here can help me
I have been running paint shop pro x2 on my old pc which was running windows xp with no problems. I have just changed my pc and gone on tp windows vista and have successfully gone through all the installation process with no trouble. I have a big problem though when i try to run the program as the whole system crashes and just shuts down and restarts?
I have contacted corel and tried various work throughs but none of them so far have worked. I have installed the latest patch, updated my graphics card driver. and tried starting the program from safe mode etc but all to no avail.
Please could someone throw some light on to the matter as i am loathe to discontinue using this program as i think its a great piece of software.
Will find out the error code and post that too in a mo if that helps
Thanks in advance
Rob

Welcome to the forums,
I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. I've managed to install it on both OS's without any problems. However on my Vista machine (laptop) I have not installed SP1.
When you installed it did you do so as an Administrator? Have you tried right-clicking on the PSP launcher (icon) and selecting Run as Admin?
You might give us an idea of what the error code was, not the error dump file. That is of no use to anyone here, and I will delete it..
