If you are experiencing runtime errors and it has to do with a shortage of memory, you are probably baffled.  Countless people report that they have plenty of physical memory available, but the problem isn’t that simple.

An out of memory runtime error usually looks like this:

• “Insufficient memory to initialize windows.  Quit one or more memory-resident programs or remove unnecessary utilities from your Config.sys and Autoexec.bat files, and restart your computer.”
• OR, “There is not enough memory available to run this program.  Quit one or more programs, and then try again.”

How to Fix Runtime Memory Errors

If you this sounds familiar, you can do a few things to troubleshoot the problem.

1.   Reboot your computer.

It’s that simple.  Your computer may need to restart and put all the registry files and keys back in place, so that there is enough open space to do something else.

2.    Do you have enough memory installed on your computer?

You may need to determine if your computer meets the system requirements of the program.  Look at the box or product description for the requirements of the program.

3.    Is your memory management software an issue?
Depending on what operating system you are running, you may need to either install or uninstall the memory management.  If it is Windows ‘95-’08, you shouldn’t need to use the memory management software.  If you are running an MS-DOS or Windows 3.x, you may need to temporarily disable the memory management.

4.    You may not have enough disk storage.

Go to My Computer, and see how much space you have available.  You will generally need 100-500 MB to be able to load or execute any program.

5.    It might not be you, it could be the software.

If you have tried a variety of methods to troubleshoot this problem, you may just need to look at the program manufacturer’s website and download a patch or update.

When All Else Fails, Maintain and Prevent with Registry Cleaners

A registry cleaner is a fairly new tool.  It used to be that you had to hire a computer tech to hack into your registry and read the code.  Or if you were adept enough, you could do it yourself.  Either solution usually had an undesirable result.  Now, there are programs that will back up, defrag, and maintain your registry.  This will prevent all types of runtime errors from ever occurring again.

Every computer running Windows has several different libraries of information required to run programs.  There is a runtime library and a .dll library along with several other libraries on a computer.  Whenever a computer is updated or a new program is installed these libraries are changed.  All of the changes on the computer dictate how programs are run and if there are any errors in the file system then it can throw the whole thing out of whack.

If you have recently made software changes to your computer and are now getting errors related to the computer’s runtime library there are simple ways to correct the problems.  There is no reason to deal with these errors until they get worse.

One common situation that occurs whenever there are software changes on a computer has to do with the registry.  In most cases runtime library errors that relate to the registry go unresolved until it is too late.  Which is silly considering these errors can be fixed with the help of a trusted registry cleaning program.

Another benefit to cleaning a computer’s registry is increased performance.  What goes on inside the computer when there are registry problems is that the computer will look for ways to temporarily correct these issues, which eats up valuable computer assets.

All of these reasons are why we created Regcure.  By installing Regcure you can fix these common problems in just a few minutes.  Furthermore, whenever you uninstall old programs it is a good idea to follow it up by cleaning the registry to ensure that the registry is working like it is supposed to.

Stop dealing with a poorly operating computer and download Regcure today.  Let Regcure fix all the errors associated with the computer’s runtime library and afterward you will be left with a totally optimized PC.
