KERNEL32.DLL ERRO

Post by Fishman »

When I try to launch Photoimpact, I get the following error message:

"Iedit

Iedit has caused an error in KERNEL32.DLL. Iedit will now close. If youi continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer."

Any suggestions on what's wrong and how to fix this?

Info referenced from Webopedia;

Kernel32.dll is the 32-bit dynamic link library found in the Windows Operating System kernel. It handles memory management, input/output operations, and interrupts. When Windows boots up, kernel32.dll is loaded into a protected memory space so other applications do not take that space over.

On occasion, though, users may encounter the "invalid page fault" error.

This error occurs when a program or application tries to access kernel32.dll's protected memory space. Sometimes the error is caused by one particular program or application, and other times it is provoked by multiple files and applications.

If the problem results from running one application, then the application needs to be replaced. If the problem occurs when accessing multiple files and applications, the corruption is probably caused by faulty hardware.

Also The Registry may have been damaged, due to a recent uninstall or new installation or a bad write.

The only solution I know of is to Uninstall PI, reboot, and turn off all of your background software and try to re-install. If the new install works you are out of trouble, if it doesn't work then you probably are missing files, or have a damaged Registry.
