Got a new computer with Windows XP Professional and re-installed Office
Processional 95. Access 95 will not launch and gets an error of "out of
memory." Tried to reset the registry of "MaxBufferSize" for Jet 2.x, but it
does not work. Need help! Thanks.

It's more than likely because you have too much memory for Access 95.

If you have Virtual PC you can create a virtual machine with an
earlier OS than XP on it or even another XP machine but with less than
1G of memory in either case for Access 95. You can put an earlier
version of Office Pro or just Access on that virtual machine. Virtual
PC is supposed to be included free with the final release of Vista.
I'm not running Vista so don't know if that's happened yet.

If you have an earlier version of Access available, fire it up. If
its Access 95 you can run from there. If it's later, you can convert
the '95 mdbs to the later version.

This is a bug in the version of Jet. In A97 it was fixed by one of
the Jet 3.5 SPs.

Try ACC95: Updated Jet DLLs for Access 95 and Jet 3.0 Available in
Download Center http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q151186/

Also get Updated Vba232.dll available in Download Center
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q147529/

However KB article "Out of memory" error starting Microsoft Access"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/161255/en-us states "Microsoft has
confirmed this to be a problem with the Microsoft Jet Database Engine
version 3.0 and 3.5. This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Jet
Database Engine version 3.51, which is available from Microsoft
Download Center. "

Therefore MS may never have patched this problem on A95.

Of course I wonder why don't you move to at least Access 97.
