I am running Win2k and whenever I try to open a photo on my computer I get a Virtual Memory error wanting me to expand the size of it.I have uninstalled the photo software twice and even increased my paging file and moved it to my D:\ partition but I am still getting the error. No other programs are running in the background and I have 512mb of RAM. Any suggestions?

Have you verified the compatibility of the photo software and Win2K? The other would be to install or reinstall Service Pack 2 for Win2K.

Your virtual memory should be at least 512MB.
Moving it to another partition on the same disk does help you if you need space on C but it does not improve performance (just to let you know).
Set the v mem at minimum 512mb, maximum 512mb and the registry size at 3 times the curent amount (around 40 mb should do it).
Let me know if it works.
