The one in section 15.6 seems the most likely problem. If that doesn't fix it...
Run `go32-v2' from a DOS box. See what numbers it gives you regarding memory
and swap space. If they seem ridiculously small (like swap space under 8MB),
the following are possible:
- Windows 95 is configured to use a small amount of virtual memory. You can
change this somehow, I think, but I don't use Windows 95 so I don't know
specifically.
- Your disk drive is nearly full. Thus there will be little space to swap into.

Do you still have the problem when running in "MS-DOS Mode"?
