I am currently running a FoxPro for windows application under Widows 95.
I have a second system, and am trying to run the same application under
Windows 95 but get the following

On start-up the following error is displayed:
"An error has occurred in your program. To keep working anyway click
ignore and save
work to a new file. To quit this program click close"
If I click ignore - the application runs - but the cursor placement
is different, and I eventually
get an error indicating "Insufficient memory" - even though the new
system has 64mb of memory,
- 96% free, while the old system (which does work) has 32 mb memory,
90% free.

The question is:
1. if the new system has a newer version of Windows 95 - is there a patch
that will eliviate
this problem?
2. is there a command somewhere that dictates how much memory is to be
allocated to this application?

Can someone out there HELP me - I am running out of ideas.
If so could you EMail me direct.
Many thanks in advance.

could it be the 'fast cpu' issue?

Yes, there may be a "config.fpw" text file in the firectory of the
application. If not, create one and write a MEMLIMIT line in it:

Note: I've found that under some OS configurations (especially when
configured with a lot of memory), that FPW can get in trouble without a
MEMLIMIT or that that has more than 16MB as the Max value. I use:

MEMLIMIT = 60, 2048, 16384
* ^^ this line above is the one you should copy into the config.fpw
