"Not enough memory" with wme-7-95-031028m-011774c
Hello All,
I installed a new ATI Radeon 9000 Pro (sapphire) the other day, and removed my Nvidia 5200 fx. I ran "det destroyer" and installed the wme-7-95-031028m-011774c drivers. Trying to open a DOS window, or start a DOS app gives me the error message "Not enough memory available to run the application". Is this known to be related to the ATI drivers/hardware somehow? This is on a gigabyte ga7vt600 board with a gig of ram and athlon 2200. Any thoughts? Thanks for your time, bl8n8r |

Thanks for your time, bl8n8r I hope you don't have Windows 2000 or XP and are trying to install those drivers since they are intended for Windows 98 and ME. If you're running Windows 98 or ME and have 1GB of memory, you will have problems in general. You will need to run MSCONFIG in Windows, and then in the General tab, go to Advanced, and limit memory to 512MB. Hope this helps. |

In article , nightsky421@no-mail-
please.com says... If you're running Windows 98 or ME and have 1GB of memory, you will have problems in general. You will need to run MSCONFIG in Windows, and then in the General tab, go to Advanced, and limit memory to 512MB. You don't have to limit it to 512M. Try starting at 960M and work down 64M at a time. A good Google search will also find many hints at several changes to SYSTEM.INI to improve performance with so much memory, and to fix a few of the issues. http://www.abxzone.com/forums/showthread/t-43835.html http://www.cybertechhelp.com/forums/...ad.php?t=32672 -- If there is a no_junk in my address, please REMOVE it before replying!
