That's why I told you that you'd have to adjust it to set the max memory at 2 GB (?) since Vista and beyond can go higher. I think I set mine to just ignore SetMemory's code if the OS() was higher than XP's value. Not the best fix, but quick fix for now. OR, I used values like 1600000 and 800000 for foreground/background respectively (by force instead of letting calculations be used). -- Mike Babcock, MCP MB Software Solutions, LLC President, Chief Software Architect http://mbsoftwaresolutions.com http://fabmate.com http://twitter.com/mbabcock16 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
