CAUSE
This error message can occur if Adobe Type Manager is installed. Adobe Type Manager modifies the [Boot] section of the System.ini file and adds:

system.drv=atmsys.drv

atmsystem.drv=system.drv



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, change the System.ini file to use the default Windows system driver:  Click Start, click Run type system.ini in the Open box, and then click OK. In the [Boot] section, locate the following lines, and then type a semicolon at the beginning of each line:

system.drv=atmsys.drv

atmsystem.drv=system.drv

 In the [Boot] section of the System.ini file, type the following new line:

system.drv=system.drv

 On the File menu, click Exit. When you are prompted to save the current changes, click Yes. Restart your computer.</li></ol>
