I have two computers on both Win XP PRO



a- Pentium 4 2.6 GHZ. 1024 MB Ram memory



b- Pentium 3 790 MHZ..352 MB Ram memory



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.



Thanks in Advance

Frank,

I'm not familiar with 'Maxsea', but don't think that's the problem
anyway. As far as I'm concerned, MS never did get a grip on memory
management, but that's another story. :^)

You might want to try this: First thing, note how many icons are in
your system tray (the one on the far right). If you see icons for
programs you don't need running, you want to get rid of these. For
example, if you've instaled Realplayer, it will start a process
every time your computer comes up. You don't need to have this
process running on your system 'at all times'. Realplayer will still
work fine. So what if it takes an extra second to start up when you
want to play a media file. In that case, you can right click on the
icon and get into the preferences and have it NOT load on system
startup. If you only click exit, it will still load on the next
startup/reboot. If you have CD burning software, chances are, when you
installed it, several more processes were added. Especially if you've
installed something like Roxio.

To clean things up that you can't turn off in the system tray and have
them stay off, next try this:

Click on 'start', then 'run' and then type 'msconfig' and hit enter.
In the box that comes up, choose the 'startup' tab at the far right.
Oh, before I go further, unless you're comfortable with what is in the
other tabs, DON'T EVEN THINK about changing aything in them. :^)

Now, look at the list and uncheck anything that you don't feel you
need running all the time. Leave stuff in there if you do want running
at all times. Examples are any programs/processes associated with you
virus protection as well as any programs/processes associated with a
software firewall, if you're running one. After fininshing, click on
'apply'. You will next be prompted to reboot for the changes to go
into effect. If you're ready to try this, go ahead and reboot. Note,
when the system reboots, a diaog box pops up stating that you are
running 'selective startup' (if memory serves me). Just check the box
to not show you the message again. You already know you made changes.
:^)

I hope this helps! I strongly suspect this will get you going with
Maxsea. Please post a reply either way.

-Jim

I'd like to double this statement from Jim. If you don't know EXACTLY
what anything on the list does, DON'T DELETE it! You could trash the
O/S and it's I/O functions good.

I assume this thing has also been on the internet at some point. If
so, put it back on the net and download AdAware 6 from www.lavasoft.de
for free. Install and run it. The record is 112 spywares
simultaneously running hidden in background on a friend's computer,
here. There was so much spyware running it slowed down his 2Ghz
system and hogged LOTS of memory. When it was OFFLINE, the spyware
stored his keystroking in memory and he was running out of space.
AdAware will reliably uninstall and delete all this nonsense, which
made his computer a real powerhouse!

If you are someone who is operating system savvy, I also recommend
Spybot Advanced, which is free. Be informed it will find EVERYTHING
that has your personal stuff stored in it. DO NOT DELETE EVERYTHING
IT FINDS OR THE COMPUTER WON'T RUN! Spybot should not be run by the
average appliance operator for this reason. Spybot comes from:

Teach the teenagers to download from Usenet's
alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.(genre here) and that won't happen. I have
17M files...(c;

Why anyone would use Kaaza or webpages mystifies me....

When they're bored with that, look in alt.binaries.movies.divx.....(c;

You still brag about the gigabytes of the intellectual property of
others you have stolen?

To understand the problem, we need to isolate it - when did the problem
begin ..
Questions about the machine with 1024 MB ram
Has it always had this much memory ? or did you add more to it?
If you added more, then:
- did it work fine before you added memory?
If so, there is the possibility of different memory speeds between existing
and new. I suggest you go to the memory mfg web site and look for tips (eg
www.Kingston.com has several notes on this issue. As well, you might want
to play with your bios memory speed settings.

If it's RDRam memory, the 2 sets of 2 banks should be populated by the same
speed memory modules, (say PC800), but the individual slots of bank 2 may
have larger or smaller capacity modules than the slots in bank1. In other
words, the make and type of the modules in bank 2 should match each other,
but only the speed has to match the modules in bank 1. Worth checking! This
is why they are almost always sold in pairs.
Remove "nospam" from return address.

Hi All,

Thanks for your help, The computer is new 2 months old only, the mem chip is
a pair and I have done mem. check as well and could not find a problem.

I have the same problem with an old Maxsea ver.7 program and with the new
ver 10. and again no problem on the other old comp.

I will be away for a few days with my boat for some serious fishing.

Be back on Thursday

Cheers

Find the Maxsea object module. Select with single left click, open menu
with single right click and left click on properties. In the second tab
play with the compatibility settings and see what happens.
