36119	2002-02-18 03:00:00	When using Word I get the following message 'The system is dangerously low in resources. Would you like to terminate the following application? WINWORD (not responding)' What do I do?	Guest (0)

Re-install the normal.dot template, restart, and if necessary re-install word... If that doesn't do the trick I'll eat my hard drive! :) Well, maybe just the Modem, Hard drives are expensive you know... :) Erin	Guest (0)

(most people are not even aware of them) Look at the right hand side of your task bar and if you see a string of icons there, there are too many things running in the background. To find out what your resource situation is, right-click on 'My Computer', click 'Properties', then click the Performance tab. If the resources are say, below 85% you are getting pretty low. Anything you may be running like Bonzibuddy, Felix, sheep or some butterfly cursor thingee are cute, but they gobble resources! Go to http://ravensperch.terrashare.com to get the lowdown on what to do about all this. (I accessed this site some time ago, so I hope it still exists, if not, contact me at email and I will forward the info) Hope that helps.	Guest (0)
