None at all. I saw it so often it's burned into my brain. All 64 bit programs that will not run display the bad image error as soon as their shortcut is clicked. I don't have (at least not that it affects my day to day use of the computer) any issues with this system, except about 3 grand or so worth of software suddenly refused to run. Corel Graphics Suite x6 (64bit) doesn't run, 32 bit version does. About 6 Adobe products (64 bit) ceased to run, but Photoshop CS6, and Premier CS5.5 run fine. Lightroom 4 doesn't run, but version 3 does.

Firefox is the only software that does not produce this error message. I doesn't do anything. No error message, no attempt to start, nothing. I had to go back to version 12 to get an operable version of Firefox, which I still run, AND, I am pretty sure that
Firefox update was responsible for this mess I have now (version 17 update or bug fix I think.)

Thanks
