out of memory to open spool32.exe

Comment:
I am working on a PC running win95,32mb RAM I am not sure of CPU speed. The problem is that when I try to open printer's folder to install a driver for a printer I get this message "not enough memory to open SPOOL32.exe". What do you think it could be? Eventually the printer's folder will open after I have closed the message. Do you think this .exe file is corrupted? I am at loss here, could you help me out?

32 megs is sort of light, but also the print spooler is sensitive to low hard disk space. Check your free hard disk space and also right click my computer/properties/virtual memory to see if you're running low on that.
