Hi Guys.I recently recieved a cd rom of screensavers and other such triva from the tv show Frasier.I tried to install it as normal but I get an error message saying LOW MEMORY .Frasier requires 4mb of memory.I have looked at the resources and the computer which has 128mb ram is running at around 82%free.The hard disc has 9gb free.Any suggestions? Thanks!

watch the operating systems...and screensavers only waste your resources...

Agreed, never use them especially ones that are as badly written as these seem to be. The way in which applications use memory is down to the application software itself, not your PC which sounds fine.

Perhaps you remember the funny one about the man standing on a desert island with the usual single palm tree and the sharks swimming around. There was some kind of inter-action possible but I've seen it crash a Win95 machine remorselessly with the loss of all that valuable stuff the secretary had spent all morning on but had not saved...

Wallpaper OK, screensavers that interfere with the processor Bah!
