Paint Shop Pro 9 Not Enough Memory Error

While editing an image in Paint Shop Pro 9.01 on her laptop my wife received the error message below:

Script Output

Executing Crop

------- Command Execution Failed -----------
Command Name: JGLDeformObject
Error Text: Not enough memory to complete this operation; close one or more documents or applications and try again. If this does not correct the problem, you may need to adjust your memory settings or work on a smaller document.

It took me awhile to figure out that the problem was simply due to an image resizing option being set to "percent" rather than "pixels". I should have spotted that fairly quickly, but didn't.

Paint Shop Pro Hangs at Startup

Whenever I attempted to start PaintShop Pro 9 on a Windows XP system, the program would hang at startup. When I tried to uninstall it, the uninstall routine hung as well. I finally resolved the problem by disabling hardware acceleration for the Nvidia video adapter in the system, though updating the driver for the video card may resolve the problem as well [Update: that is probably the better alternative, since turning off hardware acceleration may create problems for other programs as noted in GoPets and Second Life Won't Run After Nvidia Hardware Acceleration Turned off]
