WisdomSeeker Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Why is Outlook 2007 running out of memory? I am using a Thinkpad T60P laptop with 2GB of memory and 120GB harddrive. (Harddrive has about 60GB free). I am running WinXP with SP3.Whenever I attempt to start Outlook I get an error message that pops up that tells me that I am "...out of memory or system resources". I cannot expand my folders, I cannot move folders. I basically cannot do anything or I get an out of memory error. Outlook is the only application listed as running on the Application tab in the Task Manager. I have two .pst files: one is 1,009K and the other is 324,937K which are obviously small-ish .pst files.(I am running 3 .pst files on my desktop (that only has 512MB of memory) that are all larger than 1,000,000K and I get no problems at all--although I am using Outlook 2003 on the desktop).I have run an AV scan and have no virus. I have also run Ad-Aware, Spybot, and MalWareByte's Anti-Malware and have no mal-ware.Is there a setting in Outlook that I have somehow overlooked? I am running the Business Contact Manager in Outlook but this system should have more than enough memory to handle Outlook running by itself?What am I missing. Please help me as I am aggravated byond belief at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe43wv Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I know that Exchange Server 2007 has the same issue going on. Have you tried running updates for Office and Outlook? If not try that and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WisdomSeeker Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 OK. Called Microsoft. They had me delete the AddIns entries from my Registry. All is good. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
