PhotoPaint X5 is the WORST !!!!!

Wow...I've been a user of CorelDraw since version 2.  Never in my life have I had so many problems with PhotoPaint until version X5.  Simply put...This program SUCKS!!!!  It crashes constantly.  Corel...if you're listening...FIX YOUR PROGRAM.    I cannot believe you actually released this product on the market.  If I could request a full refund I would.  This is unacceptable. 

I'm running a Dell Studio XPS 8100

Intel Core i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80GHz - 8.00 GB RAM - Windows 7 64-bit

I certainly can't blame my computer for this one.  There's no warning.  I can be doing something as simple as flipping a graphic layer.  The program just goes away.  No saving of work.  Nothing.  At least in older programs there was a warning so you could at least save your work.

I purchased this computer because Windows 7 is suppose to be a more stable OS.  I beefed-up my RAM so I would never have any issues.  All my other software works great.  I should have just bit the bullet and purchased the Adobe Suite. 

I have been a dedicated user since version 2.  I'm not asking for much.  Just a working program.  Get with it Corel.  I've been an supporter for more than 15 years.  FIX YOUR SOFTWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I honestly feel with you all and do believe you are experiencing all this. At the same time I am using a windows 7 PRO 64 bit computer as well. And Photo-Paint X5, and I am not having the sanme problems. FOr example flipping an object horizontally I do daily and havent had any issue.

    That said, its important to know the exact workflow. To know if its Win 7 PRO 64 bit or the Home 64 bit. I dont know if that makes a difference, but its still important to know if there are any differences among those who have problems and those who dont.

    We help both Corel as well as our selves
