ALLOCATING
VIRTUAL
MEMORY
As mentioned in System Requirements in the chapter
2, SuperScript requires a total of 12.5 megabytes of
space, divided between your PC memory (a mini-
mum of 4 megabytes) and your Windows virtual
memory. For example, if your system has 4 mega-
bytes of RAM, then you must allocate at least 8.5
megabytes of virtual memory. If you have 5 mega-
bytes of RAM, then you need at least 7.5 megabytes
of virtual memory, and so on.
It is strongly recommended that you use permanent
virtual memory, rather than temporary. You can
change this through the Control Panel, following the
steps described below.
If you have not already designated the desired
amount of virtual memory to run SuperScript or if
you wish to convert to permanent virtual memory,
do that now by using the Control Panel. The
instructions below assume your system has the
minimum amount of PC RAM, 4 megabytes.
1. From the Program Manager screen, double-click
on the Control Panel icon.
2. Double-click on the 386 Enhanced icon.
3. Click on the Virtual Memory button.
4. If the Size shown in the Virtual Memory dialog
box is less than the amount you need, 8,500 KB,
or Type is temporary or none, then click on the
Change button. Increase the size to at least
8,500 KB. Select type permanent. For best
performance, select 32-bit access (if it is
available). Click on the OK button.
5. In order to make the settings effective, restart
Windows by clicking the Restart button.
