Before you throw the white flag, I'd make sure it's a problem that needs such big change. When it gives that kind of error, use the Windows 'Resource Monitor' to find out what is using the most memory - just go to the 'Memory' tab and click on total read / write to see what's using the most memory. There could be a background program eating it that you don't notice. If that's the case, use 'Task Manager' to end the process to free up that memory.
