Hi,
I have 3Gb RAM installed on my machine.
My engine used to occupy 1.4Gb of Ram, now it won't go further from 1.1Gb. If I increase the hashtables size to the point where it would occupy 1.4Gb it's memory footprint is 800Mb and it crashes when it starts searching. However it runs flawlessly if I reduce the hashtables size so that the engine occupies 1.1Gb
I didn't changed the engine it is just the system that went crazy.
I use Windows XP Pro.
Can someone help me?
best regards,
Alvaro

Could be your RAM that is damaged.
There exists software to test this, and also maybe in the BIOS.

This was the first link from a Google search, and I really don't know anything about it personally.
