Memory Problems
Memory Problems
(OP)
I have a 1.4G AMD Athlon Processor and a Motherboard that supports DDR Ram which I use. I recently purchased a new 512MB DDR memory card so I definitely have enough RAM.
However when I have my old 256MB DDR and my new 512 in their slots I get an error display when running the shortcut to the proe startup batch file.
Something like the following shows and Pro/E won't start.
Error:
Not enough memory to run Proe please try closing some programs to free up space.
I have no Problem with either of the cards by themselves but am extremely agitated that Pro/E will not run when I have my 768MB of RAM in the Motherboard.
I think I saw a similar post but could not find it.
If anyone else has run into this problem and knows how to fix it please let me know or give me a link to a previous post if any exist.
Thank you,
Michael

RE: Memory Problems
I hope this help. I am running Proe/e with 1g of ram and these are my setting on an INTEL 750 Mhz HP Visualize Machine.

RE: Memory Problems
I tried making the equivalent changes to My Computer Performance preferences, but it still gives me the error about not having enough memory.
It seems to me that Pro/E might not count the memory correctly if more than 512MB of memory is in the machine.
Does anyone know what the shortcut Memory settings refer to?
i.e. Standard, extended EMA etc.
I guess for now I'll just use the 512 card

RE: Memory Problems
I had simular problem on my dell. I purchased more Ram to get me 1 gig, but the dell box (bios settings)could not address more than 512 megs, we found this out but going on dell web sits for the system and checking the specs. Maybe you have the same issue.

RE: Memory Problems
You should seriously consider upgrade to Win 2000 at least.
Pro/E was never intended run with 98 because it is not true 32 bit OS. My company did Benchmark 4 years ago to show the difference between Win 98, SGI and NT workstation. Result: Win98 was more then 30x slower, (even Unix SGI was 6x slower) then NT workstation if I remember the numbers well. If you for some compatibility reason need to run 98, then make a dual boot, you will see the difference. This will fix your memory problem for sure . What is your graphic card if I may ask? Don't go with any of this "Pro/E Certified Hardware". It is expensive and usually out of date. $45 Nvidia Gforce 2 will beat most of them.
