requirements Alas, 1122 your computer may differ, and some programs may not work properly for some reason The likeliest problem is that either you don’t have enough memory (RAM) for the programs you want to use or you have other programs running that are affecting installation or running of a program If you get an error message such as “Not enough memory” or “Setup cannot continue,” follow one or more of these suggestions and then try using the software again: Turn off any antivirus software running on your computer Installation programs sometimes mimic virus activity and may make your computer incorrectly believe that it’s being infected by a virus Close all running programs The more programs you have running, the less memory is available to other programs Installation programs typically update files and programs, so if you keep other programs running, installation may not work properly Have your local computer store add more RAM to your computer Adding more memory can really help the speed of your computer and allow more programs to run at the same time Customer Care If you have trouble with the book’s companion study tools, please call the Wiley Product Technical
