Hey everyone.
I recently made the switch from a PC to a Mac and I've been lurking the forums for a couple days for some tips on my new mac. I have to say, the forums have been very helpful. I do still have a couple questions that I hope some of you could help me with. Here we go...
1) On my Mac I installed Bootcamp with Windows XP. When I am using windows, as I am closing down a site such as Youtube, my browser will freeze and after 30 seconds I will get a message saying "Out of memory at line: 56." I have received this message several times. What does this mean and is there a fix to this?
2) Should I download my virus scan for the Windows OS? I'm assuming yes, since it is Windows.
3) Unfortunatly my patience is low and when I got my mac I had a sudden urge to download bootcamp. I did look up guides to bootcamp and it did help, but I probably should have done a little more research. My question here is did I partition enough space for the Windows side of things? I believe I left 15 GB (I think it was in GB?) for Windows after reading I needed a minimum of 10 GB. I only need windows to run my applications for school, such as Word, Excel, etc. Could the lack of space also account for my problem in #1?
4) Last, is there an option for system restore on my macbook? If I did happen to make some mistake, I would want to system restore before going off to school. No, I didn't back up my information before installing programs.
That should be it. Thanks!
