Today i play Freespace 2 again, to test the translated Missions of "Revenge - Final Conflict"
I click "Start Campaign" and have the problem, that Freespace 2 crash to desktop because of "Not enough Memory". I don't know were is the problem, i have 512 DDR RAM and have 1536 MB Virtual RAM. I use the Freespace 2 Open Build T-20040822 and activated all Features to play Freespace 2 in beautiful Graphics.
But after a restart i can start the Campaign and the Mission was without any errors, work perfectly without any slow downs or so. After i end this Mission i have the same Problem with "Not enough Memory" when i want to continue. If i restart this Mission this work perfect. This problems, i have also in every other campaign, like CoW, Derelict or Homesick. So this wasn't a error within Revenge. After i startet FS2O the Memory Usage is on 230 MB from this exe. When i continue a campaign and go to Command Briefing the Memory Usage is 290 MB and within the Game with the Graphics the Memory Usage was on 450 MB. But i have 2048 MB RAM (Physicial and Virtual) But how i can have a Message with "Not enough Memory" if i have over 1500 MB free? I try to make the Virtual RAM smaller, but that's have no effect. I can only play more than 1 Mission if i disable the FS2O Features.
Where's my Problem?

AMD Athlon 2400 XP+
GeForce 4 Ti 4200 128 MB RAM with Forceware 65.62

Sounds like simple Windows deterioration. I usually get that message A LOT before I'm forced to reformat. Bu the way, I'd reformat at least once every six months. Keeps stuff working.

Do the obvious stuff, defrag, defrag memory before playing.
