CAN'T RUN 16 BIT PROMGRAM

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

Only new to xp
Not having any luck installing a game on my pc, I place the cd in, I click
install, but then an error message pops up.

When I try to run the install an error message pops up that says:

"Can't run 16-bit Windows program: Insufficient memory to run this
application. Quit one or more Windows applications then try again."
