[comp.sys.mac] Need Help with a Strange Problem

heuring@boulder.Colorado.EDU (10/13/89)

get out of memory errors when loading even relatively small documents,
even with 5 MB of RAM.  Also, after I have been running for
a while, stuff that is supposed to be in reverse video shows up as all black.
For example, selecting (one click) a document blacks out the doc name
completely.  This also shows up in applications that use reverse video.
 
Has anybody ever heard of this kind of thing?  Are there diagnostics?

The size of RAM is only part of the  equation.  Try increasing the partition
if you are running under MultiFinder.  Click once on the application icon,
choose Get Info from the Finder File menu.  Increase the size in the box
in the lower right corner of the window (after "Application Memory Size").

Hope that does it.

Yes, the Bay Area *is* still standing - remember, they only show the scary
shots.
