I have been using Adobe Photo Deluxe 2.0 for many years and it's a great program. In Jan of this year I did a complete NEW install of XP Pro. Then I reinstalled all my apps, including Photo Deluxe 2.0. Everything was fine until I installed an additional 512mb of memory. I went to open it and it gave a an insufficient memory error. I rebooted, same thing. Today I tried to uninstall and then re-install the software but now XP Pro will not let me re-install it. This strange because I had no problem installing it in the first place. I know that this is old software probably designed for 16 bit apps. But I've come to really like this ap, it has all the features I need and very easy to use.

What I don't understand is why it will not reinstall. yet i had no problem installing it on my wife's XP Home system. Both primary HD's on both system are running NTFS.

Anyone have any ideas

Go here and download Paint Shop Pro 7.0. It's free and should be able to do all yours did.http://com-puterworks.com/Free_Downloads.htm

Find everything that has to do with Adobe, and deleted manually first. Then try to install again.
To find Adobe go to search/ files and folders/ Adobe.
Good luck

Uly7:

The manual procedure will work fine, unless there is other Adobe programs installed - such as Acrobat Reader.

I have tried to reinstall as per your instructions to no avail. I am also having difficulty installing other apps as well. Such as a codec installer. Is there something on my system that has changed that I am not aware of???

This is not an Adobe issue. This is possibly a memory issue-take out the new stick to make sure it is not defective or seated improperly.

There's a problem apparently with Photodelux and too much memory installed. It's discussed in the thread below which also contains a link to the discussion on the Adobe forums.

Hi Wimpy,

Is there a way to crop in Paint Shop Pro 7.0 and keep the height to width ratio correct?

Picasa2 (free from Google) is a great editor and organizer (and more).

Might be time to try something new and this is the push you need.

I use adobe elements 2 (which many feel is not worth the learning curve). I enjoy adding a devil's horns and tail on a cute picture of a child or putting a lighting bolt between their hands. You have to deal with the learning curve to create images like that.

When you are retired you need something to fill the day.

I had the same error after installing additional 512MB RAM to the existing 512MB. Following this and a couple other threads, I changed my PAGE FILE size to 400MB on the low end and 2000MB on the high end and then PhotoDeluxe 2.0 loaded with no problem...
