Out of Memory

[Guest]

I often bring work home and I bought a new PC with 2 gig ram and 2.8 g
processor. I have two large Excel files that I try to open simultaneously
but I get an error message "Out of Memory". I can open these two files at
work where I only have 512 meg memory. I think something is not configured
properly. I have increased the size of my paging file and I still get this
error message. Can someone help?

First of all, compare the size of the pagefile on your work computer to the
size on your home computer.
Second, let the system manage the pagefile size on your home computer.
