uhmm, what os are you using? if xp - you can check memory real easy - on win98SSE ctl+alt+del to see what programs are being loaded. When doing remote control from my laptop to my desktop (pool time ;-)) - loads 3 run[something].dll [or whatever that file is named] and screws up my memory (bluescreen city) but from xp running remote control on one of my other xp machines - doesn't have that problem. New release is only on my laptop (since cl allows this and desktop) and because of limited memory (19xMeg) cant do production firefly but can do p4 renders. Everything else seems to be fine. got 20g free harddrive fully scanned and defragged, latest updates to win98se - poser files I am working with have a min of 12meg in size. Your hardware info and programs running would greatly increase the chance of being able to get help.
