First, check for an update. Try changing file permissions, but DONT give users ADMIN privs

Load up regedt32 and find Pagemaker registry keys (HKLM\Software), modify the permissions for all users to have Full Control.

Hi

This is what you need to do:

1. Log in to Windows NT as a user with administrator rights.
2. Choose Start > Run, type Regedt32 in the Open text box, and then click OK.
3. Click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE on Local Machine.
4. In the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE on Local Machine window, select the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Adobe\Pagemaker65 registry key.
5. Choose Security > Permissions.
6. In the Registry Key Permissions dialog box, select Everyone. (If there is no Everyone icon, create one: Click Add, select Everyone in the Add Users and Groups dialog box, and then click OK.)
7. Choose Full Control from the Type of Access pop-up menu.
8. Select Replace Permissions on Existing Subkeys, then click OK.
9. Click Yes when Registry Editor asks whether you want to replace the permissions on all existing sub keys within the PageMaker65 key.
10. Choose Registry > Exit, and then restart the computer.

Good luck
