I have two pc's both Compaq Deskpro 600's with 128mb memory and windows 98 loaded with office '97. When in Excel doing a large spreadsheet and trying to save the file it gives the error message "out of memory". There are still 80% resources left and nothing else is open. What's up with this?

Check startup programs, even if you are not using them they take up memory because they are running on the background. You know the little icons by the clock.... disable them, the less programs you have when booting your computer the better....
