A couple of other things that may be a problem other than not enough
physical ram.
First if you are running short of Virtual memory, this error message will
appear. If windows is controlling the amount of virtual memory, then the
disk partition where the virtual memory space is located may be running out
of space. If you have fixed your virtual memory, then the size may need to
be increased.
Next, you didn't mention which operating system you were using, but if is
Win9x or ME then you could be running into a shortage of "resources", which
is limited in these operating systems. There's a whole discourse on how
resources are not really related to the amount of physical ram you have,
but is function of how programs are written to use resources.
Maybe this will give you some things to look at.
