Ok I have not yet seen this one and realy can't find anything straight foreward on it. I built this computer for a friend about a year or so ago. He said he put IE 7 on a while ago and didn't like it so he went back to IE 6. I have done the same with my system with no trouble. He says now he keeps getting the same error from just this one site that him and his wife play this game at. It's just monopoly nothing that intense. He says after playing for and hour or so the game just stops. Actually the page itselfe closes. The preceding page has this error message "Your browser does not have enough memory to play this game". I've been playing this game for hours on my system with no problem. I've cleaned his system up and even changed the ram still after a little more than an hour it kicks me out. Is browser memory something different? How is it controled? Oh and the only real difference between the two systems is his has XP Pro and mine is XP Media Center like there is a lot of difference there.

Does the same thing happen with Firefox? How full is his system drive? I don't think swap space has anything to do with it but it's worth a look. Look at the event viewer for error messages. Start, run, eventvwr.msc

I'm not sure if this is the answer or not but open IE, click on Tools > Internet Options > Temporary Internet Files > Settings. Next to "Amount of disk space to use", how many MB's are allocated? Compare your setting to your friend's. If his setting is lower, try increasing it.

Neither of us uses firefox. I have increased the allocated MBs way over what I am using still the same trouble. As for the drive he has 68% free on c drive and 84% free on d drive. Event veiwer shows nothing for the times that this happens.

See if that game website has a Search feature, so you can Search for the Error Message meaning.
OR
Contact the website owners, or its Webmaster.
