Edit: double post error...sorry!

do you have as much spare hard drive as you have total RAM?

In other words if you have 512MB of RAM installed then you need 512MB spare room on your Hard drive, if you have 1GB installed then you need 1GB of spare hard drive space and so on.

I am not 100% sure that this is related to the specific error though!! is this a desktop PC or laptop?

I did a bit of searching and found the exact error under a windows 2000 Microsoft help page though it doesn't look very helpful!!!

Thank you very much Statica. That hotifx seems to have worked.

There we go! where is a flying genie when you need one! popped up out of no where and bang, there's the answer. I have a long way to go me thinks!

Am glad it worked for you.

HyperTF, what is paramount - is your input (the direction you took with 512MB RAM was the starting point as I recalled a documented issue) - and your participation. That's what makes this a valuable community resource.

Cheers
