"Run out of memory" ...
Well, well, three times this week-end I have again this abrupt end in my CFS2 and crashing to the desktop. One time, the F-86s kills with my MiG-15 in "Red Star" were loss; very pity not for me , but for my wingmans after so all this work!!! .Then, another crash to desktop in another scenery and mission over Antung and Sinuiju chasing B-29s and F-80s.

Already

I've never had a problem running CFS2 on WinXP + SP2 + the latest DirectX 9.0c. I never had to use compatibility mode & always used 1024 x 768 x 16 display settings. Apart from that I use the default scenery cache settings. I suspect your problem might be caused by a background application starting up without your knowledge. Some anti-virus software is notorious for this sort of thing.

I can't help with the optimum size of the page file as advice varies & I have no experience with settings for a partitioned drive. It will probably depend on how much spare HDD space you have. CFS2 runs very well on my system with Windows managing the virtual memory.

It might help to defrag your HD regularly. Also free up some resources by using a utility like FS Autostart. http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/System-Tweak/FSAutoStart.shtml

Hope this is some help.
