    Hello:

    I was on the google website and after typing in GM equinox vehicle, it went to the following windows error msg:

    "There are no spare stack pages. It may be necessary to increase the setting of 'MinSPs' in system ini to prevent possible stacks faults. There are currently 5 SPs alloted."

    Can anyone tell me what this is? Does it have anything to do with my O/S?


    Win ME: O/S
    256 MB Ram
    AMD K7 600 Processor
    12 GB HD

    To resolve this situation, add the following line to the [386Enh] section of the System.ini file and then restart your computer:

    MinSPs=4
    If the problem persists, increase the number of spare stack pages in increments of 4 (for example, 8, 12, 16).

    NOTE: Each spare stack page requires 4 kilobytes of memory.

    You can do this by selecting Start > Run, and type msconfig in the Open: box. Press OK. Select the System.ini tab, scroll down to, and select the [386Enh] section. Press New and type the command MinSPs=6, press Apply, and follow the prompts.
