Question

Version 24 (2023) Liquify error.

Yesterday on Version 23 Liquify was working fine. I have an old NVIDIA graphics card (K600) which when PS started the graphics card was disabled. I was OK with that (for the moment until I upgrade PC).

 

Today I installed version 24 (2023) and Liquify returned: Could not complete Liqufy command because of a disk error.

 

I installed the latest driver from NVIDIA and reset the Preferences. I have two disk drives, both with over 100GB of free space. BOTH exhibit this disk error message.

 

I found the new "technology Preferences"option "Older GPU mode". Checking this did not help.

 

So in frustration I installed the previous Version 23 and to my horror Liqufy does not now work, probably because since using Liquify yesterday I have updated the graphics card driver.

 

I am working on portrait commission and Liquify is part of the touching up, so I'm stumped. I just want to reset back to a working Liquify version 23 or version 24. Any ideas, please?

 

Running on Windows 10 professional.

Liquify requires a graphics card to process.

Your Graphics card is too out of date to run any current version of Photoshop GPU features.

Your Quadro K600 from 2013 clocks in at only 343 ops/sec way too low for Photoshop, which has a minimum requirement of 2,000 ops/sec and at least 1.5 GB of GPU memory (K600 has 1 GB).

Your only option is to replace your graphics card. I can't even recommend a previous version of PS old enough to support a graphics card this low.

Kevin, I'm not so sure. According to Adobe Liquify does not need a GPU. It has been working up to yesterday's update fine with the GPU disabled. So why not now? And why the erroneous error message? And why does it work on enhancement layers etc etc. 

 

I started another thread at https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-discussions/could-not-complete-the-liquify-command-due-to-a-disk-error-in-photoshop-version-24-windows/m-p/13303909#M681464, which gives more of my findings.

 

Thanks for taking the time to help.

I'll have the moderator combine these two threads. No reason to splinter the conversion.
