My clients periodically recieve the error message " There are not enough system resources to complete this operation " when they select to: and open the exchange global address book " with win98 os , outlook2000. we have shut down start up services to increase resources to 70% and it still intermittantly happens. What is causing this?

The use of resources causes the lack of them. Some programs also have "memory leaks" -- the longer they run they tie up more memory and do not properly relase memory when no longer needed.

With Win98, go to Start --> Run --> Regedit and browseon to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE --> Software --> Microsoft --> Windows --> CurrentVersion --> and look at all the programs that eat memory every time you boot up your computer. Certain things that you do not use regularly can be removed without any problems.

The best thing to do before making any changes is to export your registry and save it. Then remove those items from the right side that you do not need. Finding out what you do or do not need can be a challenge. You might want to post a listing of all the keys that appear within Run and get more input with those specifics.
