Hi Darren, Yeah it is a bit annoying but seems to have stopped for now...good old Windows eh?!!

I have 2GB of RAM and loads of free hard disk space. I just ignored the warning and it eventually went away. Maybe a windows update fixed it in the end. If you have 3GB and are doing the usual taskswith windows, then you are not going to run out of RAM.I'ts a bit annoying, but that's windows for you.

I have 3gb ram if that's what you mean? As I say I have plenty of actual capacity left on my HD although one of the drives is pretty near full but as I said th the other has 70gb free. Does this help shed light on what might be going on?

If you have as much free space on your C and D drive as you say, there no problem with disk capaity. Do you know how much physical memory you have?

When I bought it just over a year ago it said it had a 160gb hard drive, it wasn't until I got it home that I realised this was split into 2 drives, "Acer c" and "Data d". Over the past day I have been getting "not enough memory" messages when I switch on and try and do things and after a while jaws stops working - presumably as it thinks it doesn't have enough memory to run it and other applications. Anyway I've done some cleaning up tonight, taken off some progs I don't need etc etc and the "Acer c" drive says it's got 7gb free. I have looked at the "Data D" drive which has over 60gb free. I'm wondering what else I can do to clear up more memory? Is there a way of changing default settings so downloaded music, files etc are saved on the "data" and not C drive - only issue being my user profile wants to save things on the "Acer c£ drive. Do I need to consider reformatting the hd to remove the partition altogether? is this something others have come across with this type of laptop? All suggestions welcome...within reason!
