I've run into issues on several occasions w/ large drawings and/or assemblies where Solidworks tells me it is unable to attain the memory required for the current operation, yet I have upwards of 725 MB of PHYSICAL RAM free.
When this occurs, I'm typically using about 1.2 GB (mixed physical and pagefile) when Solidworks "gives up", again w/ 700+ MB of free physical RAM.
I'm running a Precision 370, 3.4 Ghz Proc, 2 GB ECC 800 Mhz RAM, SATA, ATI V3100 and XP SP2. We have slightly slower Precision 360's w/ less RAM and different hardware that have run into the same issue.
My VAR support is telling me they can't duplicate the issue, thus they cannot escalate it and they're telling me my video drivers are one version out of spec. I understand the intracacy of the software and operating system, but I highly doubt the video drivers have anything to do with it (especially since it has occured on other Precisions w/ different hardware).
Has anyone else had any issues like this? Were you able to find the solution?
Thx, Eric
