    I have a new PC with Win2K with 1Gb of memory. When I run certian applications I get a memory error. When we ran these applications on a Win98 machine I know the WIN386.swp file used to get rather large.

    does anyone know how I can correct this?

    thanks,
    Lynn

    Download and run MemTest from http://www.memtest86.com/#download0

    Do you have just one stick of ram or multiple? Test one stick at a time til you find the bad one.

    Good luck.
