Under Windows 2000, right-click on My Computer, and
select Manage from the presented menu. From the
Computer Management explorer window, display the

Not enough memory to allocate buffer under
Windows NT 4.0
This is the message that you will receive if you try to allocate
a grab buffer that is greater than the amount of DMA memory
specified during software installation. This problem can be
addressed by changing the amount of DMA memory on your
computer. Re-allocate DMA memory using the included
milconfig.exe utility. Alternatively, uninstall and reinstall MIL
and specify the appropriate amount of DMA memory.
