Thanx, 160144[/snapback] 3072MB is roughly 3MB which is what the program needs to run. This program would run but it's not the only program taking your virtual memory, they are tonnes of other system files which could be taken this up too. You need to increase your paging file. In XP, do the following: Right click on My ComputerSelect PropertiesClick on the Advanced tabUnder Performance click SettingsClick on the tab AdvancedUnder Virtual Memory click ChangeFor the drive your running the setup file from change the initial amount to 3MB and the maximum amount to 6MBClick SetClick OK until all the windows have been closed downNow try running the setup files Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, The procedure recommended by the respectful "electriic ink" is helpful but in case it did not solve your problem you may try these steps as well: Try to close programs running in silent mode, or close the Tray applications and try again.Go to Start> Run and type "msconfig" then navigate to Startup tab and remove check boxes for those programs which are not vital or necessary for your computer to boot or run properly. Then restart your computer and try again. Also you can stop some rare used services in msconfig by going to the Services tab and repeat the same procedure for those services which may not help but consume some memory to start and run.It could be the first step but it is not that late to check the minimum requirements to run the software from a readme.txt file or another resource on the web. Your system may need higher resources to run the software properly. I hope this little note could help you a bit. Regards, CyrusX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
