If the problem is caused by not enough available RAM, a RAM manager might help you avoid rebooting. I been using "FreeRAM XP Pro," which is for use on Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP based systems. I've set FreeRAM to free whatever RAM it can, whenever the system has less than 24 MB (out of 128 MB total) RAM free. In a pinch (perhaps in response to "Canvas does not allow") you might be able to avoid rebooting by clicking on FreeRAM's task bar icon to free memory FreeRAM can free. More information can be found at: http://www.yourwaresolutions.com/ . (My only connection with Your Ware Solutions, is as a satisfied user of FreeRAM.) > The only solution is to reboot as it is a system problem and not a Bat! > problem.
