"Not enough Memory" !

[chpal]

ok, so today I tried to copy+paste a web page into microsoft works. but it said there was not enought memory to do that and I needed to close stuff down. What does this mean? that I have run out of memory in my computer? ; ; do I have to erase some stuff now? I think I should have enough memory thogu, FFXI and some music is the only think I have on it. ; ;

reboot and try again, or copy a smaller section at a time.

It might mean you've run out of virtual memory. Virtual memory is a section of your hard drive that windows uses to store stuff to act as RAM, basically emulating additional RAM, hence the virtual part. You can fix that by increasing the amount of virtual memory you want your hard drive to use or by getting additional RAM, since virtual memory is only used when you're running low on RAM. How much RAM do you currently have in your computer?

If you exceed your ram it will usually start using HD space which becomes very obvious very quickly as your HD starts screaming and the whole process becomes very slow and chunky.

rebooting usually fixes this issue

 

[Bajaratt]

Yeah, but that's only because it resets all of the RAM and virtual memory when you reboot. If you keep getting the problem, I'd recommend getting more RAM or increasing the amount of hard drive spade you're using for virtual memory.

At E3 I ran into some dude's who were wearing the PALS4LIFE shirt (Leeroy's guild). When we screamed out LEEEEEEEROOOYYYYYYY, like 20 more people yelled it out. Then I yelled out "FOR THE HORDE", and some other people yelled out ALLIANCE RULES, HORDE SUCKS. LOL, it was the most spontaneous thing there, no one knew each other and thanks to Leeroy you had a bunch of strangers dicussing WoW.
