My assumption was it was erroring out because of a corrupted project file. However, I closed Premiere, opened a new project and imported the problem project into it. On two different machines.ġst Machine: The memory was not matched from the manfacturer, so I dropped in 4 sticks of 1GB DDR2 and never saw the error again.Ģnd Machine: It was a bit different not hardware from what I could muster. Before making those changes I would get the "out of memory" error every single time I was working with a project in Premiere Pro. Once I made the above changes, over 8 months ago, I have not had the dreaded "out of memory" error once. I went the conservative route and changed my virtual memory to 4096 meg. The standard "rule of thumb" is to have your virtual memory set to twice your physical memory.

I was shocked to see that, by default, Windows set my page file (virtual memory) to roughly 800 meg even though I had 4 gigs of memory. I did two things which have made the error go away completely (without changing hardware).ġ) I render sequence changes much more frequently and don't wait until I have a ton of changes to renderĢ) I went into "my computer" and checked my memory settings.
All that happened after I installed 4 gigs of memory is that it took a bit longer before I got the "out of memory" error. I had 2 gigs of memory and decided to try upgrading to 4 gigs to see if that would help. I used to get this "out of memory" error all the time.
