"Loadlibrary failed with error 87: The parameter is incorrect" error notice

Hi all.  I just installed photoshop on a new pc and I get this error message.  The program still loads, but I'm wondering what this error message means and how to fix the issue.

Hi there,

This is not a typical experience with Photoshop as you're getting an error 87 (LoadLibrary failed) while launching the app.

Which version of Photoshop are you using and what is your operating system?

If you're on Windows OS(because you mentioned PC), please checkout the suggestions offered in this article https://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/problem_with_photoshp_cs6_extended

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Thanks!  I installed the latest video card driver from the manufacturers website and now photoshop loads perfectly.

I have this same error--LoadLibrary failed with error 87--but when I click on that link it just opens the community page and if I then put "LoadLibrary failed with error 87" into the search bar, it gets me back to this answer!
