Re: Not enough memory or disk space to run Word.

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Thanks, but I already tried all of the renaming and deletion of the templates
which come up with a Google search for this. I have spent at least 10 hours
trying to diagnose this myself. The only apparent solution is to 'run as
administrator'. This is definitely not a good solution, and should only be
for a short term. It appears to be a permissions issue and I cannot
determine if it is in the registry or in permissions to a directory.

One reason that I know it is not the account as well is because I have 4
accounts on this computer. None of them are capable of running the
application except 'as administrator'. If all 4 profiles are corrupt then
that is a problem with the installer.

Thanks again...

It suggests that your profile is damaged, probably just the normal.dot or

rename it as normal.bad and test again.

I fail in the same manner.

Symptoms:
1) try to run and it gives me the not enough memory and disk space error
2) set to 'run as administrator' and it runs just fine - not problems
3) reset to not 'run as administrator'
4) run in safe mode and it gives me the not enough memory error.

I have 6 GB on my machine, Vista Ultimate 64 bit.
I have done most of the things suggested for the registry (copy over valid
esported registry - admin copy). Delete various versions. Look for
templates to delete.

Still the same problem.

This seems to be a permissions issue which I just cannot chase down. I
have
work on the permissions with the office/data directory as well, to no
avail.
