I replaced a hard drive in my computer, I'm running XP, Corel 12

It works fine on some files, but on others it starts up, then immediatly
shuts down the program. The files were created on another computer.

I have saved the files to a PDF, then bring them into Corel and that works. Unneccessary steps though.


Any ideas would be appreciated!

Are you starting Corel and then opening the files or just double-clicking on the .cdr file to launch Corel? I've had intermittent problems with the latter using X4, especially when the files are in a nonstandard location, e.g. a network share...no clue why. But they always open properly if I go through the file menu, i.e. Corel already running.

Lee, it did it both ways, opening from Corel or double clicking on the file.
Crashed Corel both ways.

I did the F8 on start up, for the time being it is working again.;)

Thanks!
