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
Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :-)
I haven't experienced this and I don't know how the following works with
Vista, but please see FAQ Item: 18. Memory Problems. If that doesn't work,
you could try installing it from Windows safe mode.
FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at
this web address: http://project.mvps.org/faqs.htm
Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :-)

Your thought on safe mode seemed a good one, but when I tried it, I got the
error "Windows installer is not accessible in safe mode ...".
Anything else I can try? I really need to get PP installed for my job and
really appreciate any help you see your way clear to provide.

I, like you, believe it is a Vista issue and I thank you for your efforts.
If you stumble across a solution and remember this exchange, please let me
know.

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 Mike) to get here.

Within Microsoft, we use Proj 2003 on Vista regularly; my personal laptop is
very close to the configuration you use, and I run 2003 without incident. I
can't see how upgrading your Vista SKU would help, as the application
doesn't do anything out of the ordinary with the operating system.
With a case number, I could follow-up.
Kind regards,
Eric

Vista Ultimate
2GHz
4GB RAM
300GB Harddrive
Project Professional 2007
Project Professional 2007 SP1
Installed today. Try to launch, runs through configuring process, ends,
crashes and tells me that "there is not enough memory to complete ..." I
then researched and found Project SP1, and installed that ... crossing my
fingers in hoping for a "fix." Nope.
I resorted to closing just about every other expendable open program or
service thing on my computer, and then tried to launch Project, but if it's a
memory issue, I doubt that anyone would be able to use Project successfully
... because I sure have a lot of memory installed!
Is there a solution for those of us little people who don't have access to a
corporate IT dpartment? I am a single-user, not corporate, there is no IT
department to lean on to me resolve the issue.
Has anyone found an answer yet? I would be VERY greatful if anyone can
offer any suggestions for a solution.

I did find something about changing registry files but I'm not confident or
knowledgeable enough to do that.
Desperately need to get this working for several projects =(
