Been waiting on this sim for a very long time . Im' getting a error that is stating Program too big for memory. This is a error that you would see with a dos based application under Win98 WinMe etc.. . I'm running WindowsXP with over a gig of mem with a P4 Intel 3.2.400 gigs of harddrive space and a Radeon 9800 XT. So far All I get too do is look at the box http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif Any help would be appreciated

try manually setting it to say....2000 (start and end).
this will give you a 2 gig swap.
Way more than enough. Especially if you have the HD
space to do so....

Thanks Brett I allocated 3 gigs for each hardrive and I'm still getting the same error .Program too big for memory. With 400 gigs of harddrive space and over a gig of mem . You would think it would run

Try to change AGP Aperture size in BIOS.

how is overall windows performance? If you have over 1gb of memory I'd start doing a virus hunt.

Hello,

I posted a reply to this once already. For some completely unknown reason it has disappeared, as well as a thread I posted with a techincal concern. I do not know what is going on but I will try once again to help you Jg3_Rage.

What are your settings in the following place...

Control Panel --> System --> Advanced Tab --> Performance Settings --> Advanced Tab --> Memory Usage

Do you have the 'Programs' bullet checked or 'System Cache'? If you have the System Cache bullet check try checking Programs instead and see what that does for you. I do not know if this is where you problem lies but I thought I'd try to help with a 'guess'.

Good Luck,

Jim
