- Memory Tips for SMS MusicMaker
- ==============================
- If you have trouble setting up SMS MusicMaker due to memory problems you
- should read this file.
-
- SMS MusicMaker needs at least 8MB of physical RAM (this is the amount of
- RAM your computer really has) to run properly. However, since most
- Windows installations waste a lot of RAM with drivers and fonts that are
- not actually needed you may find that you don't have enough RAM to run
- SMS MusicMaker or that it runs very slowly. If you run SMS MusicMaker on
- your computer and it turns out that you don't have enough memory there
- are several things you can do about it:
-
- - Remove any fonts you don't need.
- - Don't use a background picture for your desktop.
- - Install at least 4MB of virtual memory. To do that go into Control Panel,
- 386 enhanced, virtual memory and tell Windows to use virtual memory with
- prefereably permanent swap file with at least 4096KB. A higher value than
- 4096KB is recommended.
- - Close other programs before running SMS MusicMaker.
