Until 3 days ago, I NEVER had a problem with virtual memory or RAM. I used to be able to run DSS, MaxIM DL and PS CS5.1 without problems. I am using XP SP3.

The last 3 days, even try to stack 10 JPEG's (whereas before I was stacking RAWS - 40 plus), I continually get Insufficient Memory excpetions etc in ALL programs.

I have run Memtest till I was blue in the face - no RAM issues. I have swapped RAM - same results. So, I am assuming there is a memory hog somewhere in my software that starts up automatically.

Now, I have run spyware, malware checks etc - always a clean system. So it is not an infection.

Any help in trying to figure out WHY I am running out of memory, whereas before I had NO issues, would be greatly appreciated, because as-is, I cannot process ANYTHING!
