Its mainly a windows 98 problem. It happens to me occassionly as well, although I have 512 megs of ram. Windows 98 doesnt handle the toolsset very well because the toolset is a resource hog and win98 doesnt handle it well. I'm no expert, but thats what an expert told me.

I know a few people who upgraded to windows XP and havent encountered this problem again. Bioware made the game running xp from what I've read. I am considering an xp upgrade.

Try shutting everything running in the background down. I turn off my antivirus, firewall, ect. and I use my resource monitor, If it spikes up over 80 I save my module.

Call tech support if you havent, they wont make a patch unless they get feedback!

Goodluck.
