Hello all,
This problem has been troubling me for a year now. I've tried almost
everything possible, any help or information would be very helpful.
I'm running Windows XP 32 bit SP2 with latest patches, drivers, bios etc..
It is a Dell Precision 490 Xeon 5140 with 4 gig RAM and a FireGL V3400 with
128megs, dual monitors, dual SATA hard drives. The machine has many, many
applications installed. I'm a professional developer and graphics artist.
The problem is that once I get to between 70 and 80 processes I cannot load
any more. Sometimes there is a memory error reported by the app that is
trying to start. If I terminate an app then I can load another app. Is
there some sort of limit on the number of applications that can be run
simultaneously on 32 bit XP SP2? It's like I hit a ceiling even though
there is available RAM on task manager. Maybe I need more video RAM?
I've monkeyed with everything including the swap file, drivers, etc..
Thanks,
John Rose
