Title: memory problem
Post by: GSS on September 17, 2003, 14:36

:help: :curse:
please can someone help i am getting problems with jasc animation shop
this is what comes up

not enough memory to complete this operation; close one or more documents or applications and try again. if this does not correct the problem, you may need to adjust your memory settings or work on a smaller document.

Are you running other applications at the same time GSS ?
If so close them and see if it improves.
If you are only running Animation Shop then you probably need to increase your VIRTUAL MEMORY.
Go to Control Panel, System, Advanced, click on Settings in the Performance section, Advanced and then click on Change in the Virtual Memory part and increase the amount of space allocated  :)

Set it to "System Managed Size" GSS. XP is clever enough to work out how much to use all by itself.

What worries me is that you are getting that message with a quite large page file size already.

Does the program work at all, or does that message come up straight away? If it happens straight away, I would uninstall and re-install the program (or use the repair option if the installer has one).

If ME is the same as 98 (I think it is), you need to go to Control Panel|System|Performance|Virtual Memory and select the "Let Windows manage my virtual memory settings" option.

It's probably already set though ... ;)
