'Out of Virtual Memory' in MP game

[bignickel]

Well, evidently, NO ONE on the planet has run into this problem, due to the lack of anything on the Internet about it.

It's simple: The Weathercontrol Secret Project (or whatever it's called) is being completed this turn, by me.

Everytime I try to open the move sent to me by the guys in our MP game, I get "Out of virtual memory. Game is being shut down. Defrag your hard drive and increase your virtual memory".

I now have 800! Mb of Virtual memory, from the 400 before. The drive is very defragged. I'm patched to version 2. I even tried that xp/win2k compat. patch. That didn't do anything either.

This is my Work box, mind you. I have a box at home.

The work box:
Win2K
Service Pack 3
264 MB ram
Rage Fury Pro

Any ideas? Or do I have to relegate myself to opening such moves at home?

Post the save. I'll try to open it. If I get the same error...It's with the save.

No need. The problem has now gone.

What I did:
1. Re-installed the game (since I read about ALL players having to have that win2k/xp compat patch installed).
2. The other player sent me the move again.

So it MAY have been the move was corrupt. I don't know. All I know is that this time, the game came up, it didn't do any kind of movie; it just told what the Weather Control Secret Project does, and that's it. It may be that the movie played on HIS box, and thus didn't have to play on mine.
