glmf32.dll on x64

[Guest miso@sushi.com]

I had a checkdisk complain about glmf32.dll, claiming to repair it.

The PC wouldn't boot after that, though I got it to work using "the

last good setting" options. The glmf32.dll I have is 5.2.3790.1830,

size 790kB (809472). Can anyone verify if this is right?

Hi, Miso.

 

I never heard of glmf32, but Google has nearly 1,000 hits. Maybe some of

those can help you.

back from "forums" that simply "slurped" your post from here.

 

On at least one of them, the version offered for download today is

5.1.2600.0, which might be older than the version you already have.

Yeah, I did a google search before posting, but only found the size of

the older file. Someone with x64 would have to verify the size.

 

I'm eventually going to add more drives to this beast (fill out the

other raid port), then either do a fresh install of X64, or go vista.

This present x64 installation has lead a hard life, being "repaired" a

few times. If you have seen my previous posts, I have this issue with

photoshop on x64 that nobody else seems to have. Sometimes it works,

sometimes it never starts up. I have probably sent a 100 of these

error reports to microsquish, which must get scrapped. I have the same

issue with open office, but at least I can run that on my linux

machine. There really is no good alternate to photoshop, either on

windows or linux. I run gimp when photoshop acts up, but much of gimp

is only 8 bits per color. Well, enough of my cyber sob story... ;-) I

assume a fresh install will clear up the problem.

Hi, Miso.

 

Heck, I still don't know what glmf32 does - or is supposed to do.

No, I don't recall your other posts. But, then, I'm an accountant (and

retired), not involved in Photoshop or other high-end graphics, so I

probably would have skipped over any posts on such subjects.

 

I do run Photoshop Elements, just for family photos. I started with PSE2 on

WinXP Pro and have worked my way up to PSE6 on Vista Ultimate x64. During

the Vista beta, I was running PSE4 and had lots of grief trying to install

and run that on the betas. Finally, just in time for Vista RTM, PSE4 began

behaving for me and it ran well on the final Vista x64. I bought PSE6 just

last month. Its new, darker UI leaves me wishing for PSE4's brighter look

and feel, but I've had no problems installing and running it on Vista

Ultimate x64. I've pretty much left WinXP behind, so I haven't tried PSE on

either the x86 or x64 version of WinXP in over a year. I have Vista

Ultimate x86 installed as a dual-boot, but seldom run it.

 

In case it helps, I do have glmf32.dll, 457,728 bytes, dated 11/02/2006 in

my Vista x64's Windows\system32, but I don't know what it does. The version

in my WinXP x64 volume is 809,472 bytes, dated 3/25/2005.

Verifying the byte count helps. Thanks. I put a copy of PE2 on the PC

just for yucks and it bombed the same way. Other claim there is no

issue with x64, so I'll start with a fresh install. I do believe there

is some issue regarding calling Microsquish to do the second install

since thing would apear as if I am installing the software on a second

machine.

 

I'm enjoying Suse linux more and more. At least they don't treat me

like a criminal.
