Hello. I'm new here.
First time Poster.
I have an Adobe PhotoDeluxe 4.0 Program that I absolutely LOVE, and that I have installed on my 2nd laptop, but can not open it for the life of me because I get an error saying: "There is not enough memory (RAM) to launch PhotoDeluxe."

Thank you, I actually found that post, and tried for 3 days to do what it said to, but it did not solve my problem.
Maybe because the person was using the 2.0 version, and mine is the PhotoDeluxe 4.0. Or maybe because the amount of RAM they had is not the same as mine. I don't know.

it might be a good idea to increase your virtual memory, go to start, right click on my computer select properties then advanced system settings in the perfomance box select settings then advanced,increase your virtual ram by 1000mb and apply, (so if its say 3000mb make it 4000mb. its virtual ram that is insufficient) hopefully that should be enough for adobe photodeluxe to run right.

Thank you so much for trying to help.
I went to System Properties, Performance Options, Advanced, Change, selected CUSTOM, and I changed the Initial size (MB): to 6947, and Maximum Size (MB): to 7947
I restarted the computer, and reinstalled the program, and still, the same thing happened.
I'm starting to think this is an impossible task.

OK, so just for kicks, and because I was geting desperate, I decided to try tinkering with the program on my own, and I FIXED IT.!!!
It had nothing to do with increasing the RAM thing-a-ma-bobber, but here is what I did.
I RIGHT clicked over the Adobe PhotoDeluxe 4.0 icon on my desktop, and went to PROPERTIES. I clicked on the COMPATIBILITY tab, and checked the box where it said "Run ...

PaulAndAshia--
Thank you SO much for coming back and putting that info up. That was exactly my same problem. And like you, I love the old Adobe Photodeluxe software, even though I have Paint Shop Pro and others. It's so simple and easy to use for the everyday stuff.
Anyway, I have Vista also, and did just what you suggested. It worked perfectly, after having spent a frustrating ...

The compatibility fix worked great! I too had tried changing my virtual memory to no avail. Thanks so much!
