PCSOFT Digest - 1 Oct 2004 to 2 Oct 2004 (#2004-276)Hi,
Thanks to Doug for responding to me the first time.  He suggested that I have too many programs running at start-up.  I did go to "Run" and entered "msconfig" and unchecked all of the programs that I absolutely didn't need.  I also went to "System Tools" and found that a most recent start-up, I have 64% resources.
I also found that I was unable to start MS Word 2000 at all.  I uninstalled it and re-installed it, to no avail.  Does anyone have any further suggestions to correct this problem?
Thanks in advance for all assistance.

Subject: Microsoft Word 2000


Hello,
I have just started having problems with Microsoft Word.  Anytime I try to open an attachment in my Outlook Express, I get one of two messages:
1)  "There is not enough memory to run this program."  It then asks me if I want to close the program.
2)  "The system is dangerously low on resources.  Program (then stated) not responding."
The whole computer just freezes up and I have to shut down and start all over.  There is no way to open the Word document.  This has happened with different Word document attachments.  I have AVG virus protection, have run it, and it reports I am virus free.
The second message above really makes me wonder, especially since it happens just after I've started the computer.  I have a Gateway 500, Microsoft Windows 98SE, 384RAM, running Internet Explorer, and have MS Word 2000.
This problem started recently after I defragmented, using the VoptXP free 30 day trial program.  There isn't much else that is different.
Does anyone have any ideas? 
Thanks in advance,
Sharon Kiellach
