i downloaded a large file that seems to use a script to extract itself.
when i execute it, it tells me "Program to big to fit in memory".
I went to the file properties and maxed out all the memory settings to no avail.
i spent time downloading this and would like to get it to work.
i have 256 megs of mem and the file is 510 megs
any help is appreciated

How much hard drive space do you have?
Did you put your OS on it's own partition? If you did you may not have enough "TEMP" space to expand the file.
