I recently upgraded my RAM from 512MB, by installing
an extra 1GB. After that, Access 95 failed to open. All other
applications opened fine. When trying to open Access 95, I got an
error message: "Cannot open application. Out of memory" (or
words to that effect).

After googling, I get the impression that Access 95 only normally
works with RAM less than 1GB for some reason. Does anyone know of a
fix, a patch or any other way to overcome this problem?

I'm running Windows XP Home Edition, ver 2002, w/service pack 3.

Thank you,

JD

Access 97 had this exact problem but Jet 3.51 SP3 fixed that. However
A95 does not, to my knowledge, have a patch as it uses Jet 3.0.

in other words-- it's best to move to a newer version.

I don't think that it's possible today to buy a new machine with
(only) 1gb of ram, let alone 512mb.
