Hi - <br>
can anyone tell me how much ram I really need to run word for mac 98 smoothly?<br>
<br>
Even with the memory allocation set to 18 mb, right now, we're getting a lot of out of memory messages and spotty screen redraws, sometimes with &quot;erased&quot; views of entire pages. These documents are 98% plain text. These are 1st generation G3s with mac os 8.6, total ram=64 mb.<br>
<br>
Normally, only Word is running; sometimes we also have distiller and acrobat open.<br>
<br>
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
 
Should run fine. Here are the system requirements:<br>
PowerPC processor-based, Mac OS-compatible system (clock speed of at least 120 MHz recommended) <br>
Apple Mac OS System 7.5 or later (System 7.5.5 or later recommended) <br>
16MB RAM to run applications individually; more memory is required to run additional applications simultaneously. (32MB RAM recommended) <br>
49-120MB of available hard-disk space; approximately 90MB for Easy Install, depending on configuration. <br>
CD-ROM drive (or connection to a Local Area Network if installing over network) <br>
Monitor or display supporting 16 grays or 256 colors, with 640x400 or higher resolution. <br>
<br>
