I agree with Eric's comments.  I recently got a new Gateway system with a
2ghz Pentium 4, 1 gb of RAM  and a 20gb hard drive running Windows 2000.  On
my old system which had 256 mb of RAM, dual 550 mhz Pentium IIIs and a much
smaller hard drive I experienced a rash of crashes during my morning R:Base
run of nearly 100 programs.  Since I have transferred everything to my new
beefier machine I have not had one single instance of R:Base crashing during
my morning run.  Nothing else has changed.

Incidentally, with my new machine, my morning run has dropped from 3 hours+
of run time to under 1 hour!

Moral of story:  Make sure your system has lots of RAM (at least 512 mb?),
lots of available disk space and the fastest processor you can afford.

Just my $0.02 worth.

Subject: XP Pro and 6.5++

Hi all --- sorry, I hit Enter and I think I sent a
response too soon.  First mistake this year!

I am running RBW 6.5++ with the second patch installed
on XP pro.  I have not installed the latest patch for
XP.

I get kicked out of RBase about 1-2 times a week at
different spots.  I am unable to duplicate the
crashes.

Is there something I should look for or is this a
feature in Windows to free up memory?

Thanks
marc
