Re: 2 GB of memory over 1 GB of memory free, and outlook complains of being out of memory

Well I am running Media Center 2005 and my values where as your for W2003
Enterprise Server, I took a chance and increased the 512, value by 256 to
768. The install is less than a week old. I had Outlook, Outlook Express,
Internet Explorer (about 12 windows open), and eWallet open at the time,
along with a number of IBM programs that open in the background normally. As
I read this article the 512 value should have been well beyond what I
needed. Windows Task Manager shows me at about 93 to 95 Processes generally.
Before I made the change I would show that I was using a little less than 1
GB of my 2 GB of memory. Now I seem to be using perhaps a little less
memory. I tested a little after making the change and was able to open 32
Internet Explorer windows, before I got bored with opening windows. Before
the change I would hit a wall at around 24 Internet Explorer windows, where
I could no longer open windows, and sometimes it would occur with as few as
12 windows, or when I clicked on Reply Group.

Thank you David, it is always helpful when someone posts a solution.

I checked in W2003 Enterprise Server and the values there differ a bit,
like this.

%SystemRoot%\system32\csrss.exe
ObjectDirectory=\Windows
SharedSection=1024,3072,512
Windows=On
SubSystemType=Windows
ServerDll=basesrv,1
ServerDll=winsrv:UserServerDllInitialization,3
ServerDll=winsrv:ConServerDllInitialization,2
ProfileControl=Off
MaxRequestThreads=16

While the article gives

%SystemRoot%\system32\csrss.exe
ObjectDirectory=\Windows
SharedSection=1024,3072
Windows=On
SubSystemType=Windows
ServerDll=basesrv,1
ServerDll=winsrv:GdiServerDllInitialization,4
ServerDll=winsrv:UserServerDllInitialization,3
ServerDll=winsrv:ConServerDllInitialization,2
ProfileControl=Off
MaxRequestThreads=16

Out of interest what did you have running at the time?

David, in addition to Michael's advice can I suggest you look at these
sites which far surpass anything Microsoft has ever offered in regard to
OE.

I have a problem where Outlook Express complains of being out of memory,
yet I have 2 GB of memory and over 1 Gb of free physical memory. I often
can not reply to post, or even open new windows in IE. Any ideas on
this?

Thanks,
David Hettel
