Memory errors in Windows seldom have anything to do with the amount of RAM
you've got installed; I suppose they occasionally actually have *something* to
do with memory, but I've yet to hear of or see an example, and in fact the only
time I ever had a *verifiable* problem with RAM, Windows complained about
corrupted files on the hard drive. It kinda figures, doesn't it? ;-)
Anyhow ...
I'd check the Temp folder -- it may have gotten WAY cluttered up with junk
files; that can cause PowerPoint all kinds of oddball problems. Delete all
the strays and give it another shot. Good luck!
