Default Memory problems

Thank you all so much for your assistance .

I had a look at the residence programs and I could unload some small
starting up programs like Chameleon clock and Acrobat assistance.

I have Ad-Aware running for over a year.

I had a look at the Virtual Memory.

In the old computer I have disk space available 32503 MB, Virtual initial
size 528MB, Max size 1056 MB

On the new computer free disk space 33556MB, Virtual initial size 1536MB
and max size3072 MB

Looking at the above , what shall I do still enlarge the virtual memo??

Comparing the two the new computer looks so much better and still??

I could do msconfig and start up in diagnostic startup and try to run the
Maxsea program??

I have a navigation program Maxsea 9.1.1.4 , when I try to load this

program
on comp. "A " I get the message insufficient memory.



I can load without problems the program on the older computer "B" with so
much less memory



I can't find what the problem is any help will be appreciated.


Out of memory errors are seldom caused by the amount of RAM you have.
They are almost always caused because either the virtual memory has
been limited too much, or else there is not enough room on the hard
drive for enough virtual memory space.

A corrupt executable "can" sometimes cause out of memory errors, but
it's not very common. When you hear hoofbeats, look for horses before
looking for zebras...

right click on "my computer" - properties - advanced -preformance
settings. select the advanced tab, and at the bottom select the
"change" button.

It will tell you how much space is available, and what the current
settings are. If you have space available, increase both the Initial
size and the maximum size substantially. click the "set button after
making the changes, and then reboot and try your program again.
