Access wont load

Version is '97. It's giving me an 'out of memory' message
at boot and then when you close that message another one
pops up saying to close some applications. Saw the
article on MS help that states to up the page
file/virtual memory. Did that to max and it still won't
work. Running this on a brand new Dell laptop with a
Pentium M 1.7ghz and 1gb of RAM. I'm thinking this should
suffice, no?

Access 97 gets confused and won't work if you have 1 GB or more of RAM.
After all, A97 was introduced when the norm was 32/64 MB of RAM.

Appreciate the help Van. That worked just fine.
