Did you remember to limit the amount of RAM that can be used as a virtual
cache?
Whilst Win Me like all Win 9x operating systems can use up to 2GB of RAM where
more than 512MB of RAM is installed on a system using a Win 9x operating
system it is necessary to limit the size of the virtual cache otherwise the
system runs out of address space which can then cause all manner of problems.
This problem is easily fixed as follows:
To limit vcache, open system.ini and add the lines
[VCache]
MaxFileCache=512000
Note that this will still mean that all memory is available to applications
but is simply limiting the amount used as virtual cache memory.
For more details see: MS KB 253912 - ""Out of Memory" Error Messages with
Large Amounts of RAM Installed" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=253912).
