RE: WinMBT chrashes - what to do?
K's are Kilos, or thousands. 256K would be 256 thousand bits of Memory. Memory is RAM ( Random Access Memory). That is where the machine stores data it is using to make all those neeto things happen on your screen. Like I used to tell me Intro to Computer Science students ( CompSci 101), think of it as a bunch of light switches. 256 thousand of them. Megs is millions. So 256 megs of Ram would be 256 million light switchs.
They are very tiny, as you can imagine.
Any way, these light switches go on and off in patterns. Those patterns are interperted by a special part of your machine. If you don't have enough 'light switches' the special part of your machine will run out of them before it finishes the job. That confuses it and it stops running.
Sort of like what happens when your 19 year old girlfriend finds out you put a limit on the credit card you gave her. She gets confused and stops.....
