Win 7 corel draw 8 mem-bad-handle

[chuckkisa]

When trying to use Corel Draw 8 I get an error message ( MEM-BAD_HANDLE)

Corel Draw 8 is is form 1998, I'm sure it's not supported under Windows 7. You also did not say if you had 64 bit or 32 bit version of 7. If 64, you can try installing the 32 bit version and see if it runs on that.

Or update the program to something younger than 14 years. http://www.corel.com/corel/pages/index.jsp?pgid=2100019&storeKey=us&languageCode=en

I have a 64 bit with 4 GIG of RAM. The conclusion seems that this program is too old to be used with Windows 7. Thank you very much for you help. I will get a more recent program to experiment with my digital pictures.
