Help me! I'm getting desperate!

I have a problem with my Coreldraw11 software. For some reason, one day, it decided not to let me open any more graphics - new or otherwise. I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, adding service packs, safe modes, deleting relevant keys from registry, restoring software to factory defaults, basically just about everything apart from sacrificing the neighbours cat.

I cant work out why its doing this coz i've installed nothing new to cause any conflicts with drivers or such like.

FYI, I get the following error message, which means absolutely jack to me...

CORELDRW caused an exception 10H in module CDRCORE110.DLL at 0167:22c5aaf5.

Google knows all

http://www.njpcug.org/graphics/corel.htm

Article about someone with exact the same problem (with corel 10 though), and a solution for it. (Interesting part begins at 1/3 of the article at "CorelDraw 10 The Adventure Begins").

Good luck.

Then my prayers were answered, oh lord, oh lord. Amen

Thanks for that Marco! I read thru it and disabled some of the drivers mentioned in the article, it had no effect but then i had a sudden brain wave. I did have, until recently, a graphics tablet installed on my comp. I hardly used it so flogged it on ebay, it caused no problems and worked fine but i just didn't make the conection that not having the tablet connected was causing the problem. I just this minute uninstalled the Tablet drivers and all is OK, we can get back to work!!!

Alleluia! Praze da lawd, praze da lawd!

So I get 2 minutes of free shopping at SAS?

I'm glad you can continue with your work. If you run into problems in the future you can always send me a message.
