- TITLE :Err Msg: Not Enough Memory to Run Word
- PRODUCT :Windows NT
- PROD/VER:3.10
- OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
- KEYWORDS:
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
- The information in this article applies to:
-
- - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- When starting 16-bit Word for Windows (version 2.0c or version 6.0) from
- Windows NT, you may receive the following error message even though there
- is plenty of available memory:
-
- There is not enough memory to run Word.
-
- There are three known possible situations which can cause this error:
-
- Default Printer Unavailable
- ---------------------------
-
- The printer pointed to by the default printer driver may be
- unavailable. Open Print Manager and delete all printers and printer
- connections. Restart Word. Alternatively, test the printer connections
- by printing to each installed printer from Notepad.
-
- Insufficient Disk Space in Word Directory
- -----------------------------------------
-
- Word uses the default program directory for some of its internal
- temporary files. There should be at least 4 MB of free disk space in
- this directory.
-
- Insufficient Disk Space in \TEMP or Startup Directory
- -----------------------------------------------------
-
- The TEMP environment variable set in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file may be
- missing or pointing to a location where there is insufficient disk
- space to create Word's temporary files. From the System portion of
- Control Panel, check that the User Environment includes a valid TEMP
- variable. If the Word startup directory is different from the default,
- especially if it is in the same logical drive as the Windows NT paging
- file, there may be insufficient disk space to open Word.
