I keep receiving insufficient memory errors when trying to run Doslynx and some other .exe programs. I've already run Memmaker; so what else can I do to free up memory and fix this problem?

Run chkdsk /f from the dos promt. If you are in windows go to file and then exit to dos. After typing in the chkdsk /f dos will make some files in the root that will be file0000.chk and upwards. You need to delete these files. Then empty your temp directory which can be found in c:\windows\temp. Also empty your cache in your browser.
