Default Inadequate Memory Problem

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

Default Inadequate Memory Problem

First look at system information and verify Windows sees all 2 Gigs of
memory. (Segment/s may not be making contact).
Verify virtual memory is in use and active.

Default Inadequate Memory Problem

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.

So you post as "jw" but sign as "Duke"? Should be the same moniker.
Plus you should've be divulged your true e-mail address to the spambots
that roam newsgroups to harvest e-mail addresses.

Duke is aka John Wayne with initials JW. Eldorado was one of his
movies of course.

The moniker with which you post shouldn't be different than the one with
which you sign (but then you are duplicating info that readers already
see in the From header so a signature name is redundant and fluff).

Correction: I should've said "you should NOT divulge your true e-mail
address".

By not munging your e-mail address or not specifying one at all (or an
invalid one), you are abusing the owner of the eldorado.com domain. Did
you actually register eldorado.com for yourself? Are you the owner of
EDV Management Company which is the registrant of eldorado.com? You can
divulge your own e-mail address, munge one and use that (but the munged
value should not specify a legitimate e-mail address), or specify one
that is invalid (e.g., use the .invalid TLD) or one that can never be
defined. See my e-mail address in the From header of my post where the
..lh TLD is not yet defined - see
http://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/
(if it gets defined then I'll have to change my posted e-mail address,
like using .invalid). Either your e-mail address should point at one
that belongs to you or not to any possible e-mail address (which means
it doesn't point at someone else's possible legitimate e-mail address).

If you were EDV Mgmt operating a mail server and were the employee using
"jw" there as a username, would you appreciate someone focusing the
spambots harvesting e-mail addresses from Usenet to slam your mailbox?
If you don't want to divulge your own e-mail address, don't point to one
that might belong to someone else.
