aim and graal
Hello, when ever I have graal open while im logged into aim, my aim gets all messed up, I cant see what people are saying to me, and the only way i can usually fix it is by restarting my computer, now i'm co-owner of a server and I have a lot of people to talk to, and I have things I need to check that they send to me, but its really hard to reset the computer every 10 minutes, is there anyway to prevent this from happening?

That means you do not have enough memery to run all thoughs progs you run... Buy some new memery and put it in and it will work just fine

Well depends which kind of memery you get..... probly around 20 bucks... But if you close all programs that you are not using while running aim and graal it may not do that no more. Can you tell me how much memery you got in your pc and what progs you usually run while it does this?

well graal, explorer and aim should all work... But I know if you run msn with thoughs it will take up alot of memery... You shouldnt run paint programs like adobe, or paint shop prog while running graal or any other programs.

Yes. You can talk to the Graal players, and answer their questions while chatting on AIM.

IcePick is right, you need more RAM. There could be programs running in the background slowing you down too, so uninstall any programs you don't need or use.

Yes I do agree with icepick here. Also most paint programs like psp and adobe take up alot of memory, can lags you alot when there starting up. I wouldn't run them while having graal and other stuff running. Graal can be enough lag on 128. I need more ram for mine soon. You can get PC2100 DDR 128mb for $19, or PC100 128mb for $9. Just depends what type of ram you need. Its very cheap.

You need a DDR-compatible motherboard to get DDR.

Why would you want PC100? Get PC133...

I think it's not a memory problem,
it's a problem of windows GDI resources
(and general windows resources) because in
older windows version it was limited and global
so when loading an image into DirectX it takes
resources (which are not completely freed when
deleted the DirectX object) and creating windows
take resources and all that stuff,
so after some time you get problems with icons
on the taskbar or on explorer or programs like
ICQ or AIM and Graal will say 'Canvas doesn't allow
drawing' or so

I know, I was just giving a price range of how cheap it is. DDR is good for AMD boards which is what I'm getting.

Umm it is a memory problem... I opened alot of progs and it displayed the message, but then I took all my memory out accept for one small stick of memory and then tryed opening a hole bunch of progs like I did before, and when someone aimed me it didnt display. So it is somewhat related with the memory.....

Does the 'Parameter is incorrect' error message happen for the same reason?

Hey, smart guy. Not only do you need to get off the drugs and realize you never replied to the other thread in this forum that I want you to read since I proved you wrong and made you look stupid, you apparently don't know that Trillian 0.7 has file transfer and direct connect.

Are you running ICQ or anything else laggy?

Because if you are, it will lag very bad.
