ms paint
Hi. My MS paint program has never had a problem until now.
I have no clue how to fix this. Hoping all you computer whizzes can help me again. When I click -start-programs-accessories-paint, the paint window will open, but it is blank and a box pops up and says: .... There is not enough memory or resources to complete operation. Close some programs and then try again ... It was fine about 4 days ago when paint was last used, and I haven't added anything since then. TIA for any help you can give. |

This may be the problem but you may not be able to use the solution.
Open Paint up, then select Image, Attributes. You probably have it set too large. Cut it down to the size you want, e.g. 640 x 480 pixels or less. The smaller you have it, the faster it will load. It will remember that setting until you change it again. If you cannot do the above, use this: Have a look he Err Msg: MSPAINT Caused an Invalid Page Fault...

Try uninstalling/reinstalling via Control Panel Add/Remove Programs Windows
Setup tab Accessories, to see if it helps. Uncheck Paint Apply Ok Reboot. Go back and recheck Paint. Make sure you have your WinCD on hand in case you're asked for it or point to the Windows setup files ( many .cab files) if present on the drive, usually found in c:\windows\options\cabs. -- Brian A.

That is exactly what happened now that you pointed it out
to me. My daughter set the size larger last time she used it. And you were right, I couldn't access attributes to change it. I used your last suggestion about ----- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre nt Version\Applets\Paint----- and it worked!!!!Thanks so much!
