This looks like a good free solution to any QB2001 memory
problems:
http://www.freewarehome.com/software/mem-trax.html
My home system has 256mb, W98SE and an Intel P3 700. QB2001,
Mindspring DSL, Outlook Express, Norton AV, Personal Web Server,
Agent, Internet Explorer 5.5, Windows Explorer and other minor
programs were running. Free resources, according to the Windows
System Performance index, were 47%. I loaded mem-trax and it
jumped to 69%. I do not know if it is good or bad that the Windows
SI and Norton SI do not recognize the change.
