Hello All:

I'm using Protel99SE service pack 6 and wonder if anyone has a fix for some
of the problems I'm seeing. After doing a print setup and print preview,
the system gives me an error indicating that it could not read memory at a
certain location. I'm running this on a Pentium 4, 3GHz, 512megs of
interleaved DDRII memory and 2- 40 gig hard drives. I'm using it at home
since my employer discarded it for PADS, so it is free to me. I cannot
afford to switch to another tool because it is just me using it.

My OS is Windows XP sp2.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Jim

James,
I would suspect there may be something not so sound about
your print driver. Myself and many more have been using it for
years and it is pretty stable. Your machine and memory are not
the real problem, I have run it on a lot less.

All I could suggest is try re-installing your print drivers
and/or look to see if there are any updated print drivers. Do you
have a PDF writer? Does it act up with the PDF driver as well?
Other printers? Try a virtual (print to file) print driver?

There is an issue when Protel doesn't find a printer it knew
was previously installed (i.e. there is now no printer) . I can't
recall anybody ever having problems when they changed printers,
except for actual printer problems (drivers or just plain
compatibility issues).

Signature

Sincerely,
Brad Velander
