Additonal troubleshooting steps for Windows 3.x:
1. Open Control Panel (usually located in the Main group).
2. Double-click 386 Enhanced.
3. Click Virtual Memory.
4. Verify that there is a swapfile of at least 6,000 KB. If there is no swapfile
or a swapfile less than 6,000 KB, a larger swapfile will need to be created.
NOTE: For better performance, a permanent swapfile should be created.
