It's not clear which version of Windows was in question, but indeed we
discovered
some problems with the usemem.bat solution we offered earlier - it doesn't work
under Windows7.
Hopefully these are now resolved. The page
http://www.gap-system.org/Download/WinInst.html
has updated instructions and a link to my page
http://www.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/~alexk/gap/win7mem/
where I explained how to allow GAP workspaces up to 1GB instead of the 384 MB
of
memory which is the default limit set by the current Cygwin version. So far it
worked for me for GAP 4.5 beta on a 32-bit Windows7 with a proper Cygwin
installation, and for GAP 4.4.12 on a Windows Vista machine without Cygwin.
Though
there is no guarantee yet that it works on other machines, you're welcome to try
if you have an experience of editing the Windows registry.
Best wishes,
Alexander
