MFX DRAW: Incorrect "Low Memory, Save Document Now" Pop-up (102709)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1
This article was previously published under Q102709 SYMPTOMS
The following pop-up message appears without apparent cause:
Low memory, Save document now
CAUSE
DRAW is trying to create a DC using its own metafile driver. Windows
NT doesn't support the loading of nonstandard drivers, so the system
fails the CreateDC. This, in turn, fails the WM_RENDER message that is
being passed to draw the metafile. This, in turn, fails
GetClipboardData back in Word for Windows context, which generates
this pop-up message.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.1 of Windows
NT. We are researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. This will not
be solved until there is a 32-bit DRAW or a 32-bit device driver.
