Hi John!,

I dont exactly know what the Global Memory Manager is,
but I think it might have to do with how TS4.0
shares/manages the resources it has "stolen" from
Windows between the Server,Charting and the news
monitor.
If you can get by without the news monitor i would
turn it off. I would bet $$ that this is where your
problems are coming from. Also, TS4.0 Has a BUG in the
server that never deletes the graphic news files
collected from past days in C:\Omega\NEWS\PCX.
Eventually it will eat all available space on your HD.

Again, If you can get by without the news monitor
Today,Before the market opens I would Disable the News
Monitor in the BMI server/Options/News tab, empty the
C:\Omega\NEWS\PCX directory,close TS & bmi server,
Reboot,Refire-up TS4.0 and I suspect your problem will
go away.

Good Luck and let me know how it goes.

Good trading,

Alan C.
