After I have had the computer on a bit, this error message comes up 'The win 16 subsysten has insufficient resources to continue running. Click OK, close application and restart' Then one of my programs, either perfect works or Print artist just closes and I have to stop everything and restart the computer to get it back on. All the other programs are still running and I can keep working for days with out hese programs, but when I want to use them I have to restart the computer all over again. They will then work for a bit again and then it starts all over again.
When I've been using my computer for a while and try to place it in 'Hibernate', I get a message that states the there are not enough resources. Is there a way to free up resources so it can go into hibernate
Have"Iomega Automatic Backup Pro Software" and the Iomega 80gb usb external hard drive This software works great for backing up data The only way I can get it to work for a complete system restore on my C/Drive is in safe mode! Tried it on another computer had same problem. One of the computers has Windows Xp Pro (media adtion) the other windows XP home.The Windows Pro is HP that has the recovery backup on seperate partion D/Drive , installed as fat32,. Normal system is on C/drive . I can do a back up the on the D/drive Fat32 but not the C/drive which is NTFS. This appears to be great software very simple to use nothing like Ghost 2003 . only problem it doesn't work for doing a complete system backup. (The reason I bought it) Was wondering if anyone has used this software and had similar difficulties ? Or if anyone has any idea what could be causing the problem?
I get a error box that comes up that says "Insufficient Resources", now I only get this after playing a game for about 15 minutes every time I play. Before (about 5 formats ago (which has been awile) I would never get this, now it's happening every time and it frustrates me because i'm trying to play and then I get this error then after about 2 minutes my computer reboots.I have 1GB RAM, so i'm sure that's enough to play the games (I play on lowish-medium quality).
Over the past two years, I've built six computers for friends and co-workers, including some real screamin' gamers (P4, 3GHz, 2GB RAM, 256 MB video card, all running WinXP Pro). They all work fine, but all also seem to share one common annoyance. After being left on for some length of time (10-15 hours), they all seem to lock up. They don't completely freeze up - the mouse will work, but clicking on any icon gives the error message that "insufficient system resources exist for the requested operation ..". This happens even when the computers are unused for that time (i.e., overnight). I thought it was pretty obvious that something is eating up memory, so I installed AnalogX MaxMem to monitor the memory. It didn't help. Over time, the computer's available memory seemed to stay steadily around 70-75%, but even with MaxMem showing that much available memory, the computer still gave the "insufficient resource" message after being left on overnight.
I first noticed my computer slowing down dramatically. Then I noticed that my windows updates were not installing. Spent two weeks with windows update helpers and could not get them to install. Kept getting the message "Insufficiet system resources exist to complete the request". I have tried to clean up my computer, deleting temp files, histories, unused programs and they still will not load. On some of the attempts to delete old programs I do not use, I would get the same message and the program would not delete. Even bought System Mechanic 8.5 tried to install it and it won't install. Tried to install everything in safe mode, but they will not install
I have an Acer TravelMate 2303LC laptop. Yesterday I realised I was out of space on the C: drive (6MB I think) and was planning to delete/move files to free up space tonight. However after switching it on today it comes up with the lsass.exe system error - 'insufficient system resources exist to complete the API'. It only offers the choice of OK and when you click this it restarts and comes up with the same error again, and you can repeat this forever
I am constantly connected to the internet via the university's network, run AVG 7.1 free, spybot s&d and its tea timer, and ad-aware se personal, all with updated definitions. I run an ewido online scan once a week, but don't keep it installed since it causes my computer to boot much more slowly. I also have the most current windows updates, except WMPlayer 10, and .Net 2.0 because it seems unnecessary. Well, back to the problem. I was talking to my friend on AIM, when I got the message "The connection to the service was lost" and had options to try and reconnect, etc. I tried to load IE, but it gave me some error along the lines on "Unable to load (initialize?) IE due to insufficient resources." I have a gig of ram, 3.0 GHZ P4, 120 Gig of hdd space, about 80 gig free, and run CCleaner about twice a week.
Anyway, I've been clean according to those 3 programs I use frequently, but after I got kicked off AIM and IE wouldnt load, my favorites were empty, programs wouldnt load, i couldnt shut down, etc. So I hit the reset button. When rebooted, the BIOS screen showed, and stayed for along time which it never does. Then, it kind of froze. As illogical as this seems, I just hit the switch on the back of the powersupply and waited about 2 minutes. All of my fans are clear of dust and in working operation (GPU, CPU, and PSU). I havent installed or removed any hardware / software recently, etc. So when I restarted, I rebooted into "safe mode with network support" and ran Spybot, Adaware, AVG7.1 and Ewido online scan. None reported anything outstanding, but AVG notes that read errors occured for the MBR and boot sector. Ewido found "spyware.chitika" which it removed. I rebooted and am currently in "safe mode with networking" just to be safe, but my question is: what could have caused this? and how can I fix my MBR? Thanks for any suggestions. I have a final paper that I need to finish before friday!
When I startup Windows XP I get the following message:
"Windows cannot create a temporary profile directory. This may be caused by insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator"
DETAIL: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested sequence
I had Win XP and my laptop does not start it only gives me this message and then reebot and the window with these message only has the option ok so its a cycle I look to other post about these and says that I shoul liberate some of my disk memory but I can't enter in safe mode I already tried and this is a real problem cause I have 2 disk one of them removable but is only 8 GB and its completely clean it has nothing on it and the other one is the disk of my computer I can not remove it and is 8 GB too. I didn't install anything but the programs that I really need and my messenge
I can not bring up animated graphics on my screen. It will view most jpeg files but not gif files. I get a 'drawing failed' on the screen. When I call up a folder, only half the items show to the eye. The others are blank. When I call up a program, it says 'Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service'. I took screen shots through my print screen program and no problem to bring that program up. But when I go after them to put in Photobucket to post I get the 'Insufficient' message so I can't post them for you. It lets me do some things but not others?
I know that this question has been asked but I could not find an answer that fixed the problem, so I thought I might try again. Whenever I try to hibernate my computer, the message, "Insufficient system resources to complete the API." comes up. Afterwards, anything concerning hibernation disappear and the hibernation button cannot be clicked. My system details are as follows: Dell Inspiron 9300 running Windows XP Media Center Edition. 1.73 ghz processor with 1.50 gb of ram. (I have heard that having over 1.0 gb of ram might cause this, but I could not find anything that could fix it.)
I have an desktop PC installed with Windows XP. Yesterday I realised that the free space in my C: drive was rapidly decreasing and before I could take any action, the free space was in KB's and the computer shut down.After switching it on, it comes up with the lsass.exe system error - 'Insufficient system resources exist to complete the API'. It only offers the choice of OK and when you click this it restarts and comes up with the same error again, and you can repeat this forever I tried to start in Safe mode also,but the computer restarts.
I have a Lite-On SHW-160P6S DVD drive. Just recently reinstalled windows and reformatted and was in the process of gradually getting everything set up and installed, when my drive disappeared. I don't know exactly when, but it was gone. I checked the device manager and it said the driver was corrupted, no updated driver available, so I uninstalled and restarted. Upon restart, Windows recognizes the drive and begins to install it
When I try to put my system in hibernation, I frequently get the message "insufficient system resources exist to complete this API". My only alternative is to kill the power to the computer. I have 2.5GB of RAM and more than 35GB of unused space on drive C:. I have recently defragmented the C: drive and I have used drive cleanup
i month ago i got an Acer laptop with dual 1.66 intel, XP Pro, 120GigHD, 2GigRAM, 128megVRAM, xp pro/sp2
the computer hibernates just fine if i start it up and hibernate immediately... but if i open anything, even if only for a few minutes and then close it again, then when i try and hibernate, it'll act like it's starting to hibernate and then give me the message:
"System Error: Insufficient System Resources Exist to Complete the API
I know somewhere this has been answered. Unfortunately, I can't find the solution and I'm at my wits end.When I boot my computer (just started about a week ago) I get the following 3 messages: 1 Title of boxed message is 16 Bit MS-DOS Subsystem: A. Inside this box it says C:Docume~1MikeSt~1Locals~1Tempvcrxfile.exe.The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction. Choose close to terminate the application. B. I close it and then I get another similar message with after Tempmssjfile.exe. I close this application and get a third message. c. After Tempsylgfile.exe. I close this application and the computer is fine and working okay.I've tracked the files to be located in my Temp folder %temp%, and I can delete them, but once I reboot the computer, the automatically come back. I've tried even in safe mode, but no success.I havn't loaded any new programs, but like I said it just started after downloading some Microsoft updates.

Hello,I got my Cnet email,last week, ok thank you,and saved it to my pc,its easier to refer to it rather than trawl all the way back through yahoo. Any way today I got the next email and again it interests me , as I have an old pc to dispose of.So interesting article save to pc,NO!I got ERROR unable to save to place,I tried it again several times to different places in the pc but no.So of to another web site I've been lately,ebay save a camera detail to pc aha unable to save insufficient memory,??? A check shows I have 17GB free space on one drive and 150GB free on the other drive and currently using about 270MB of 512MB ram so how can I be short of memory?I then did virus/spy/nasties scans,checked my drives for errors and defraged them.Tried it all again saves ebay ok but not cnet,but last week it saved cnet ok.
after a while of using my computer i will get error messages saying that programs/ie cannot be opened because there is insufficient memory. the computer is fine before this and handles many different things at the same time. i have to restart my computer every time this happens. i am currently running XP.
My son has a problem on his computer. I think it started when he downloaded the last big Microsoft update - the one that was being talked about so much recently. It blocks his computer when it occurs. I have to translate the message he receives on the screen from French, so I hope you will still understand. The message (translated) says: "Windows- Minimal virtual memory insufficient. Your system is lacking virtual memory. Windows augments (increases?) the size of your pagination file of the virtual memory. During this operation, requests for memory for certain applications can be refused. For more information, consult Help". But we can't consult help. We can't do anything. The computer kind of get gets bocked and has to be rebooted all the time. This can occur any time. When he's playing games it shoots him off back to the Windows main page and sometimes he needs to reboot to get back on. It also occurs when he's on the internet. When he's on the internet, he can't get back on and needs to reboot most of the time.
error messages on my pc are becoming more frequent for some reason . The first one is when i try to install something sometimes a error box comes geaded "16 bt MS-DOS Subsystem" and it say C:unzippedfips20fips.exe, C:PROGRA~1SymantecS32EVNT1.DLL. An installable Virtual Device Driver failed Dll initialization. Choose "close" to terminate the application.
I am running windows xp home, sp3 on a Geteway desktop with a pentium 4. A while ago, after doing and un-doing a system restore, I am now getting and error message everytime I boot up. In front of a larget DOS window there is a smaller gray error window that is tiiled '16 bit MS-DOS subsystem'.
