Notepad--60kb limit ???
I have a page on my website that is going to be about 65kb-75kb. My problem is that when I'm in notepad writting the code I get to 60kb and I get an error "Not enough memory available to complete this operation. Quit one or more applications to increase available memory, and try again.".
But, I dont have anything else running...I'm not even logged onto the internet! Also, I have 17.2gb free on my harddrive.
I tried using Wordpad, and saving it as a text file, but it is the same as Notepad.
Anyone have any ideas how to fix this????

I'm sure someone can give you a more technical answer, but I'll give you one anyways. You get the error message because your RAM (Random Access Memory) is all being used by programs that are running, even though they may not be in your taskbar.
Any icon you see in your system tray (where the clock is) is a program running; try closing some of those. Also, there are programs running that are not in the System Tray or the Taskbar. If you press CRTL + ALT + DELETE once you'll get a popup (In XP it's Windows Task Manager) with all of the running processes (programs) running on your computer. You can close some of these, but be careful what you close, if you close a critical system program you'll make your computer crash. I would suggest only closing things you know.
Another possibility is that you have a lot of Spyware/Adware running on your computer. Download Lavasoft Adaware and Spybot Search and Destroy to scan your computer for any of that bad stuff.
Hope I've helped.

Notepad has a 60KB limit per file. If you're saving the file in Wordpad but opening it in Notepad it's not going to work. There are a number of free Notepad replacement programs out there. Give a few of them a try and see how you like them.

If it's for a personal project, try using TextPad from textpad.com its free for personal use.

Thanks for the help. I always get good suggestions on this forum. I down loaded some of the anti-scumware suggested by Mark and I had 16 "objects" otherwise known as cookies and advertising junk!
Sometimes I'm a little dense. Thanks for all of your help!
As for my original problem I figured how to save code in Wordpad so that it will work as a web page---
