   Hi Michael

     I may be wrong here, (it's a long shot), so please forgive me if I am, 
but it's worth a try as I too have had problems with a 1 gig system whereby 
I can't open one of my favourite image editing programs unless I do this. 
When you go into your VM dialogue box in Control Panel, use the 'Custom 
size' option and enter in the 'Initial size' field: 2024.

   In the 'Maximum size' field, enter: 4048 and restart your comp.

   Again, not sure if it will work, but anyway, good luck.

    ~Steve~
