From: jw on 12 Aug 2010 07:21 I was trying to cut and paste a few images into Word Perfect, and experienced a failure saying 'inadequate memory'. I have 2GB DDR in four 512MB segments. I wonder what the problem might be? Thanks Duke

Verify virtual memory is in use and active. <jw(a)eldorado.com> wrote in message news:n4m766pg29b8gbocrquqo0u25osbf5tvk4(a)4ax.com... >I was trying to cut and paste a few images into Word Perfect, and > experienced a failure saying 'inadequate memory'.

From: Db on 12 Aug 2010 12:39 you might double check your virtual memory settings. sometimes setting it to auto doesn't work. what you might try is to set the vm to a custom size. first be sure you have only one vm existing. next set the initial size = 2 next set the max size = 1150 1150 is an old setting. however, you can use it and see if it helps out. the other option is to set the max vm to 1.5 times the amount of ram. but it is highly unlikely "highly unlikely" that the system will not even use up 1150. -- -- db���`�...�><)))�> DatabaseBen, Retired Professional ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This NNTP newsgroup is evolving to: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx <jw(a)eldorado.com> wrote in message news:n4m766pg29b8gbocrquqo0u25osbf5tvk4(a)4ax.com... > I was trying to cut and paste a few images into Word Perfect, and > experienced a failure saying 'inadequate memory'.
