I believe this is a result of programs that, when closed, do not properly release the memory they've used back to windows. It won't matter how much ram you have installed, you would still see the error message. I think realplayer products are notorious for this?

Go to msconfig and clear everything out of the startup file you don't need. If you don't know if you need it, uncheck it, try it and then decide.
