>See if Recommendations for memory configuration for FPDOS/FPW under Win32 OS FAQ #15468 could help.
>

I've updated the FAQ recently so that the method of adjusting memory settings is explained in greater detail.

>>Hello All
>>
>>I have a Foxpro 2.0 (Foxprol.exe version) application which I am trying to run on XP Professional. The application calls the same programs with different data, it does this by calling programs in a loop.
>>
>>When the programs get executed for around the third time the application locks up.
>>
>>The strange thing is that if I leave the computer for around 10 mins it looks like it starts again only to lock up again. The programs run fine standalone.
>>
>>I suspect it is a memory problem. Foxpro reports when I take the About Foxpro System option from within it.
>>
>> Total Memory 380,896
>> EMS Memory 4,194,304
>> First 64K of EMS Use : Standard Memory
>> Dos Memory Available N/A
>> Memory in Use 54,298
>>
>>I think I have done the obvious things like alterating the config files to files = 99 and buffers to say 40. And adjusting the PIF options to Auto for the memory settings as well as changing these to the highest settings.
>>
>>But just can't think of anything else.
>>
>>Any thoughts anyone.
>>
>>Many Thanks
>>
>>Chris
