For information on running the disk checking utility, refer to Help and Support on the Windows Start menu.
Memory Conflicts
Microsoft Windows controls memory management. If you experience a problem with memory management, please refer to
Help and Support on the Windows Start menu or a commercially available Windows guide. If a particular program causes the
memory error, refer to the documentation for that program.
