More space on your HDD devoted to the OS paging file. System properties advaced under memory allocation or something. Just give it a few hundred megs more.
Usually happens when your HDD is already full. RAM is nice too, requires less VRAM |

right click on My Computer and go to properties
then click on the advanced tab
Then go into the performace settings that deal with Processor schedulings, memory usage, and virtual memory
in there you will have the choice to let windows allocate its own memory to the paging file or you can specify. Normally windows only gives something like 120 megs. so if you bump it to 250 or 300 or something itll do a bit better.
I still would say clean up your HDD and/or get a larger HDD and some RAM |

| thats probably your problem :) devoting half a gig to shadow ram isnt probably the best thing on earth hehe. a 512 of some DDRAM would be fine. stuffs dirt cheap too |

Not at the moment tho, the prices are like more than 50% more expensive atm than they normally are. At least the better quality stuff is... |
