RAM/Virtual Memory issue!

[Guest]

I recently increased my memory from 256 MB to over a gig.

Since then the Adobe PhotoDeluxe 2.0 program I have had for many years does
not open. I receive a message with a red circle with an X and it states the
following “There is not enough memory (RAM) to launch PhotoDeluxe.â€

There is enough memory.

I went to a online forum regarding this issue and it was suggested to go to
Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance Settings > Advanced > Virtual
Memory > Change Custom Size; initial from 336 to 4000 MB and change maximum
from672 to 4096 MB and then launch the program. This works, however after
rebooting it reverts to the original error massage and I then have to go back
change the settings to the lower memory numbers, reboot, and start the
process all over again to open the program.

How do I permanently fix without have to jump through a lot f hoops to get
this program to work?

do a test and try
a custom size of
2 for min and 1152 max.

basically, with all the extra
ram, you don't need a large
swap file.

in some cases with really
large ram, you don't need
to set any virtual memory.

however the above is only
a test for the issue by
this particular program.

This did not change anything...still cannot launch program.

 

[Guest]

you're welcome.

if i come across anything
i'll keep you posted...

incidentally, what might be interesting
is to download the other
adobe trialware, like photoshop
and or a newer version of what you have
now and see if they produce a similar
error.

if not then there may be a chance
that they will jar something to make
your old program functional again.

however, if the newer downloads don't
have an issue with your large ram
configuration then it is likely
your old programs needs
an update or patch from adobe.

just some more thoughts that
won't hurt and might help...

Did you click the radio button for custom. Then set upper and lower limits to
3500 and click "set".

Did not work, currently the 4000 and 4095 are, however I have to change
settings and reboot, reset and reboot again...patches do not appear to be
available
-- please help!

Thanks to all for your help! It's appreciated.
