What is the relation between photoshop cs4 and atkogl32.dll?

[laurita...@adobeforums.com]

Hi.
Some times -not always- my photoshop cs4 Extended Edition, crash.
However, if I disable OpenGl function, photoshop works perfectly.
Of course: I have up to date the graphic card drives.

Every crash, appears a magic word:atkogl32.dll.
Uncle google says that atkogl32.dll is relating with Asus.

Could you please help me?
Thanks in advance.

My graphic card: Asus EAX1650XT (256mb).
MOBO: Asus P5W DH Deluxe.
OS: Windows XP professional edition service pack 2.
Processor: Core 2 duo E6320.

Greetings from México.

None whatsoever, I would think. It's apparently one more in the long line of OpenGL problems (atk ogl 32.dll)

What's helping some, aside from updating the nVidia driver, is to throw out all 3rd party plugins and update DirectX.

Hi, freeagent.
Thanks for answering to me.

Do you advice me to throw out all 3rd party plugins?
Well... I only have 3: niksoftware color efex Pro, Viveza and Grain surgery.
They work very good.

Another option?

I am sad...
PS cs4 is an amazing program. It opens itself in 3.4 seconds.
Of course: it is faster than cs2...

Thanks in advance.

Especially Nik software plugins. They are known to cause problems. Get updated plugins and reinstall them.
