I have just purchased a new PC with Vista. In attempting to load this new PC
with my licensed copy of Project Prefessional 2003, I get the following
error, after installation and when starting up PP: "There is not enough
memory to complete this operation. To free up available memory, close
programs, projects or windows you aren't using and then try again".

I have 1 gb of RAM, 90GB of hard drive and a 1.3gb page file set, with no
other programs running. Can anyone point me to a solution/

Gratefully,
Dan

I am having the same problem on a new Dell with Windows Vista Ultimate
and Office 2007 Small Business loaded. RAM: 2GB, HDD: 2x 160GB. Getting
the same error for Project and Visio as you describe. Have run a
registry cleaner and uninstall/installed several different ways (even
unistalling Office 2007). No luck.

Anyone have any idea what is causing the problem? Many thanks in
advance.

Scott

Scott:
Taking your lead,I just tried my Visio 2003 and it too does not open. One
Note 2003 opens just fine. Yesterday, I also posted this problem and the
Project discussion group (see 6/29 postings), where Mike Glen MVP gave it his
best shot, to no avail.

It would surely appear that some 2003 Office apps have a problem with Vista,
at least sometimes??

Any other ideas from anyone would be very much appreciated.

Thanks Dan. At least we know that this problem can be replicated across
machines, although it seems now that I'm paying the price for
troubleshooting.

I uninstalled Office Small Business 2007 (OEM with the Dell) to see if
loading Visio and/or Project 2003 would load without it resident. When
that didn't work I reloaded Office during which the installer seems to
get stuck in a loop where it says it has to configure Office 2007 every
time I open one of the programs. To make matters worse it does the same
thing for each mail message I receive through Outlook! ARGH!!!!!!

Microsoft can you PLEASE put out a product that isn't buggy? How can
Office 2007 - your latest and greatest - have install problems with
your latest OS?????

I'm at wits end (short of reloading the entire system from scratch
which I'm really loathe to do).

Dan? Anyone?

Thanks.

You're welcome, Scott. Now, keep in mind, I am not a technical person, I'm a
manager type, so whatever I now say should be taken accordingly. I was
getting into a similar loop as you and have decided to uninstall PP and
Visio. I then ran CC Cleaner (free software) to clean the registry and then
Advanced System Optimizer for general principle. I next ran another free app
(diskeeper) to defrag the page file and everything else.

I am now back to a 'clean' position. I have emailed the folks at Smart
Computing to see if they can come up with any solution. If that fails, I will
next call Microsoft, as I am still within my 90 day window for free service
calls.

If all that produces any results, I'll be sure to post it here.

Good luck, Buddy. we're in this together <g>!!

Scott:
SUCCESS!!!

After much back and forth, and with thanks to "Smart
Computing" magazine's technical staff (they directed me to MSFT support, as
their sense was direct incompatability with Vista as being most probable), I
ended up last night speaking with 4 MSFT reps. The last, reading from the
"book", officially told me PP2003 is supposed to be compatible with all OS
after XP. he then unofficially indicated it might be wise to upgrade my Vista
Home Premium to Business or Ultimate as they most probably would be more
compatable with a "professional" product. As this would be a $245 upgrade I
elected not to do that.

My company's IT guy then came up with a solution that WORKS! There's a
company called VMWare (http://www.vmware.com/download/) that offers a
product that will simulate an XP OS on your Vista machine. My IT guy gave me
a disk with a Reader and the desktop simulator (4 GB of material), which I
have
successfully installed and am up and running.

BOTTOM LINE? Project Professional 2003 and Visio 2003 does not appear to be
compatible with Vista Home Premium (at least) at the present time. Positions
that disagree with this conclusion are cordially invited.

PS: the MSFT guy indicated I should monitor this forum for any subsequent
patches that may be produced to solve this clear issue.

Hope all this helps someone out there save the hours it took us (at least me
and Scott) to get here.

Michael; I would respectfully disagree with your position, and perhaps I may
have misquoted the conversation and I certainly took it out of out of
context. Let em try to clarify: In my view, this employee was doing his best
to help out a customer, given the paucity of information available to him.
I'd give him a raise.

Dan,

I don't know what transpired in the conversation
However, it should make absolutely no difference
whether you had Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate-
that program either installs/works on Vista, or it doesn't.
For him to suggest that you spend all that extra money on
upgrading your OS is ridiculous. More than likely, had you
spent $245 to upgrade, that program would still not have worked,
and you really might have felt that you wasted your money.

He may have been trying his best to help you, but giving out
bad information is not helpful.

OK, now I see your main point and I do (and did) obviously agree that
spending the money on a 'maybe but probably wouldn't' option was a bad one.
He didn't recommend, he suggested and I declined.

I guess my main point is for the Microsoft to get out a patch to ensure that
2003 product is compatible with Vista, as the published information available
seems to imply. My secondary point is to alert all users of PP2003 of the
workaround, should they be in that boat.

I have been having the sames problem with Project 2007 and have just
solved it. It appears to be a problem with registry keys in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT for MSProject there is a solution here:-

'Please help: MS Project 2007 Fresh Install first launch yields Memory
error - Microsoft Project'
(http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=833143)

NOTE: I did not apply the permissions to the top level keys.

This is the second application that has had problems with the
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. Even Microsoft could'nt solve this one for me :-(
