re: Question about 'Windows says it's ''Dangerously Low on System Resources''' Monday, February 18, 2002 at 6:08 am Windows Me Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Earl (295 messages posted) Sounds like you have a lot of stuff running in the background. You might go to Start-run-msconfig-startup tab. Then you can uncheck a few things that don't have to run in the background and see if that helps. Your system resources should improve. You will have to reboot after you uncheck some things. Be sure you understand what you are unchecking.
