| 9816 | 2001-03-11 09:41:00 | Hi there, I downloaded Powerpoint viewer 97, and when I restarted my computer got the following message. No spare stack pages. You may need to increase the settings of 'MinSPs' in SYSTEM.INI, 6 SPs allocated. Could Powerpoint have caused this problem? Or Acrobat Reader? I had deleted Acrobat Reader 3.01 and installed 4.05 before that, but the system seemed to be fine. The message only popped up after downloading Powerpoint. I used GoBack to get me back to before my download of Powerpoint and upgrade to Acrobat 4.05, but thought I'd ask about the cause of the message before trying to download Powerpoint, or upgrade Acrobat Reader again.I have read other peoples responses to the 'MinSPs', which have been very interesting. I am running a Gateway 733 with 128mb RAM, and Windows ME. The powerpoint site said it was suitable for 98/2000/NT only, but Gateways help desk said it should be ok with ME. Is this the problem in this instance? Any info greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Graham. |

NOTE: Each spare stack page requires 4 kilobytes of memory. |
