Startup Interruptions
During startup, Big Business evaluates available memory and arranges for its efficient use. A variety of lists are loaded and a maximum number of open windows determined. Even after a Toolbar appears, Big Business may still be arranging memory, particularly if it is in short supply.
Interrupting this startup may generate the following messages:
• Out of Memory, Quit Big Business as soon as possible
• You may only have one window open at a time (3426)
The optimal amount of memory for Big Business increases as the size of your data file--number of Customers, Items, Vendors, etc.--increases. If during startup Big Business does not have an optimal amount of available memory, it may take significantly longer to arrange available memory for use.
The Toolbar may appear before startup operations are complete and it is possible to interrupt startup and receive the following messages:
• Out of Memory, Quit Big Business as soon as possible
• You may only have one window open at a time
If you allow Big Business adequate time to complete startup, you will not encounter these messages.
Ideally, however, you would remedy this problem by adding more memory to the computer or reducing contention for existing memory by reducing the number of other services and applications running.
