The solution may be as simple as re-formatting.  It's worth a try and doesn't cost anything.

Did that too, no luck.

I found an air leak in my inflatable sheep and plugged the hole! Honest!

Yes good luck with your PS.

I just upgraded my memory to 4 gigs from 2. I noted the comment previously that applications are limited to 2g so It might seem this was a waste. My thinking was that in game memory resources would be much less with everything loaded. This is because while the game is limited to 2 gigs, the operating system needs some memory too. This has turned out to be true. I now have about 1400Megs available for windows and the full 2 GByte for AH2.

I think with the price of ram being what it is (70 bucks with a 30 dollar rebate for Corsair DDR2 Dominator) for 4 gigs it doesn't make sense not to upgrade. I think you pick up some additional headroom for cheap.

When you are playing Aces High.  Can you press <CONTROL> + I keys.
Please either post a screen shot or simply state how much SYSTEM MEMORY Aces High says it's using?

Thank you.
