Pog, if you really have just 128 MB RAM, you'd do good to turn off all the eye-candy. (Windows XP) Right click on an empty area of your desktop, go to Properties and then Effects. Others you can find right-clicking on My Computer -> Properties -> Performance Options -> Visual Effects. I'm not listing them, cause I don't know which ones you like and which ones not. Also, check the amount of your virtual memory. Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> System -> System Propeties -> Performance -> Settings. Under tab Performance Options, item Virtual Memory click on change. You should have 1.5 times your RAM as minimal value and 3 times RAM as maximal value. Just occured: have you filled up your disk? That might account for "not enough memory" message. Then, if you use Fast User Switching, disable it. Control Panel -> User Account. Click on Change the way users log on or off and remove the mark beside Use Fast User Switching. BTW, lsd (:-)), the minimal amount of RAM Microsoft recommends is 128 MB both for XP Home and Pro.
