Kevin,

The most common cause for this error is a bad registry entry. Do you know how to edit the registry?


gibb,

Your issue is likely attributed to the graphics adapter you are using. What video card are you using?

Regards

[Kevin Taylor]

What ever card was in this PC when we got it What should I have since I'm working on up grading in the next two week's Don't know about the regestry Explane if you can Thank's Kevin

Kevin,

The registry is not something for the faint of heart to be fooling with. Give the support guys a call and they will help you out. That I feel is the best way to handle your situation.

The graphics card comment was intended for gibb, but if you're looking at getting a new graphics card it is all dependant on the software systems that you intend to run on the computer and what you currently have in the system.

I like the NVidia 7 series cards for general use. Yes, it is a gaming card, but performs well in other types of applications as well. For CAD specific the Quadros are best.

ATI are pretty standard, but I don't have a favorite as of now.

Regards

I have been very happy with the support for V22. Its been working great for months now. I still get the occational "required application unavalible" then it shuts down. But its not a big problem, I just hit save every 5 minutes or so.
Is there an easy fix for this? If its complicated, I'll just leave it alone.
Thanks Matt

You may want to make sure that you have the latest V22 build #1137 first. If you are up to date then we need to look into that further.

I'll do that, .....just one question, how do I do that?

[gibb]

Kevin Thanks for responding I think the printer is ok because quickbooks

prints checks perfectly. I took Sorin's course for 19 and he talked about

registry changes. I am reluctant to try. My graphics card:

NVDIA Ge force 6150 SEn Force 430.

Is sorin still around? I tried to send him an email and it bounced. I wanted to watch the videos because I just bought ver 23 last week.
