OK, this one has got me stumped. Tried getting on FS to do a few quick legs and got the Out of Memory message and FS crashed to desktop. Checked the Cooler for help, fiddled with virtual memory, no dice. Here's the weird part... Shut down completely, let it sit for a few minutes, restarted. Loaded up FS by itself, as soon as Windows had finished booting, still does it. Nothing in Task manager suggests a memory leak, only thing that starts up with Windows is AVG. Right now out of 1.5 GB of ram I have 1 GB free, and both HDD's are fairly empty (C:/ is about 1/3rd full, and D:/ only has 1 GB out of 120GB full. Not installed anything strange lately, just the newest version of Limewire and Java runtimes, both of which were already installed on the machine, just got updated. And yes, I've virus scanned the two files I got off Limewire BEFORE I opened them. Computer in question: 2.93 Ghz Celeron D, 1.5 GB ram, nVidia 6200 OC graphics.
Could it be a bad stick of RAM? HDD? Windows needs reloaded?

sounds like your card is overheating. I had the exact same problem. Ended up opening the side of my PC and putting a reverse pull fan inside...worked like a champ.

A fan that helps pull or push the circulating air (cooler air in - hotter air out).

After a little googling, I found it was a scenery conflict with an edit I had made. Pulled the file, started right up.
