are you saying that the QA house can't run it on any machine with less than
80 MB of physical memory installed? this doesn't make any sense to me.
Windows handles memory managment for Director itself. basically, as Colin
has stated, this is done thru the swapfile on disk. even a machine with 32
MB of RAM installed will be able to run an application that requires many
more megs of physical ram by paging things to disk. it may be slow and it
may thrash the disk a lot, but it should run. generally the swapfile
settings are set such that Windows dynamically chooses the amount of hard
disk space available to the swapfile. HOWEVER a user can set this to a hard
number. this case is the only time I have personally seen what you are
describing. I would make sure that this is not the case.
additionally, are you doing any unloading of assets as you move thru the
application? if not I would consider looking into doing that.
