Anyone else find that even with a computer that has 256Meg of RAM you

continue. (The system requirments that MakeMusic advertises says nothing
about having a 'minimum' of 256, just 256 minimum). Why should a notation
software program require sooo much RAM in the first place?
Sooo much RAM? You must be joking. The standard these days is at least
512 MB. I think Finale's requirements are low if anything.
However, if you really think you have 256 MB I don't know why Finale
doesn't seem to recognize it. But I guess you are on Windows, and I
don't know much about windows...

The fact that there is a ram card in the slot which says it has 256MB of
ram doesn't mean the operating system gets it all.
Depending on the graphics processor and the sound card (especially if
these are built into the motherboard) some of that RAM is used for video
memory and soundcard memory.
Then there is the ram that the OS uses simply to run. So there won't be
256MB of free ram when installation comes around, and there may be such
a small portion available that the installer simply won't run.
