My husband encountered this message when trying to play World of Warcraft. Can anyone tell us what it means?

this application has encountered a critical error:





Not enough storage is available to process this command.


Program: C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe


File: .\DBCache.cpp


Line: 418





Requested 3909025536 bytes of memory.





Press OK to terminate the application.

It means you don't have enough RAM for WoW to run correctly, to find out what kind you need, go to http://www.crucial.com and scan your PC, it will tell you the types of RAM you can use, go out and get it or buy it off the site, pop it in and you should be fine.





email me w/ any ?'s

Reply:Arledgetd is correct, that error does indicate that the program needs more memory to run. However, the byte size indicated is a pretty large amount for WoW.exe to require. That may mean your PC has what's called a "memory leak", where memory is not released for re-use after a program has finished with it. In that case, a simple shut-down or restart should correct the problem.
