2873 1999-09-03 07:40:00 I am having trouble running IBM Photo Perfect V1.0 on my new computer
(366mhzCeleron-64mb RAM-8GB HDD with WIN 98 and Award Modular BIOS V4.51PG). The program was supplied, installed, as part of the purchase deal. Most of the program runs OK but whenever I attempt to open the 'Album Explorer' section Windows displays the warning message 'This program has committed an illegal operation and will be shut down'. True to it's word the program is not allowed to run. I have tried un-installing Photo Perfect (using Windows add/remove programs from Control Panel menu) and re-installing it from the original CD. To no avail. Next, Windows was re-installed from CD. This also did not help. I then had the computer vendor format the hard drive and re-install everthing from scratch. The program then appeared to run OK The first once or twice that I used it but then The warning re-appeared and it again will not run. Has anyone got any ideas please?

The error message text appears below.
