ed,
There are some things to check for. What is running in the system tray and
do you need everything that is running. What runs at start up and od you
need everything that does. What services are active in services under
administrative tools and do you need all of them? Adjustments can be made
in system under controll pannel on the advanced page under performance
settings, in the advanced tab, there are settings you can tweak. One of
them is the file paging size. This is recommended to be 2 to three times
the amount of ram that you actually have so three gig of ram should work for
you in both of these fields for lower and upper limit. There are other
settings you can tweek, but before going to this length, make sure that in
services as mentioned above that indexing is turned off and any other
services you don't need are turned off. and also make sure you have reduced
as much as possible what is running at start up and what is loaded in the
system tray.

Subject: Out of Memory
I think this may be JAWS related, but I am not sure. With a fairly long
(about 40 pages) document loaded, MS Word, usually when reading
word-by-word (though not limited to that situation), announces that it
has insufficient memory and that the action being undertaken cannot be
undone if I choose to proceed. I hit "Y" and continue. Granted, the
document is complex with automatic numbering, styles, automatic
cross-references, and the like, but I have one GB of RAM, and I should
think that would definitely be sufficient. This happens both on my 1 GB
laptop running Windows XP Professional and my 1 GB desktop machine
running Windows 2000.
My secretary does not have the same problem. She has less memory, but
no JAWS.
All other applications are shut down when this happens. I am running
JAWS 4.51, with the patch.
Any ideas? Do I really need more memory?
