out of memory

Win98 by default don't use config.sys but if you use some DOS app can be (also DOS drivers). If you delete it, Win98 will not recreate it automaticaly.

This is overkill I know , some information may not be relevant , but
for those that are reading this question & learning rather than
answering , they may get something out of these extra sites .

Hi Jason:
I had semular problems to this one. Check your windows Temp,Internet Temp files. Delete all files with a TMP extenion. Anonther solution would be to click on My Computer, right click on your drive, go down to properties, click on clean disk. A menue will come up. Verify that the appropriete box is checked. Click OK. Either solution should work. Good Luck

Do a CTRL-ALT-DEL and see what programs are running. Explorer and SysTray should be there. Now find out what other programs are running and kill a few things. I know that there is no reason for anyone to have RealPlayer stuff start on Windows boot. So you should disable that if you have it running.
You can also try programs like Wintop (old Windows Magazine program) or Norton's Process Viewer to see what programs are running.
Chances are, you have a bunch of things running and you should definitly stop a few from starting up with Windows. That will help. And then take it from there.

Run a search for Normal.dot & delete it, a conflict in the global template causes low memory resources.
