Erm... Doing a lot of 3D models using Autodesk Inventor and 2GB of RAM is kindda normal but to me is not enough coz working with more than 3,000 parts, made my com sweat a lot... Currently doing animation while typing this reply and peak value is 1574424. But even if I get 3 or 4 gigs of ram won't make a diff rite? Cz I read somewhere that Windows only allow programs to use up to 2GB of RAMS in total and the rest goes to windows... Am I right or not? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Anybody here still thinks 2GB RAMs is not enough? I'm sure it's not enough for me.... Makes my computer crawl...

P4 3.2GHz with HT
2GB RAMs
ATi Radeon 1300
Duno the rest... Company's PC. hehe

Look at the attachment. This screenshot was taken after I tweak windows to allow 3Gigs for Inventor and still an error message came out telling me that I've used more than 3Gigs and advice me to close other apps... can we change the Windows RAM usage limit? If we can't then no point adding more RAMs as it'll be a waste.

Another Windows error came out... "Bad allocation" and it shuts down my programs together with the unsaved animation... I have to do it all over... Frustrating man ... What causes this error? Anybody knows?

Sorry for late reply, was not at work during weekends... As you said, I still don't understand because before I tweak the Windows to allow 3GB for Inventor, the error message came out before I even used up my Physical Memory. My physical memory remains 1GB when the error message came out. And "If" I have more than 3GB of rams, windows will do the same and won't allow me to utilize all that ammount on any programs... other than Windows.
