Shark007 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 osa.exe is installed with Microsoft Office Suite. This process is the startup assistant I suggest you look into this small program to control your startup programsStartup Control Panelgood luck.Shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHz Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 OSA.exe would not be the problem. Having only 133 Mb on your systemdrive would be. You say you have 2Gb of ram. It will need to page to HDD space somewhere? Virtual memory is a must! Your page file will not survive on 133 Mb of space. You will not be able to defrag the drive. The OS is choking. Solution: start uninstalling some software, before the OS dies. Aleast 15% or considing the size of the ram especially that you should not go below 4Gb of available HDD space.

ringfinger Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Most definatly remove some applications and/or get another HD for storage. I'd run a defrag with PerfectDisk as well once done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
