I wrote several times in this newsgroup about problems with not being able
to load application or new web pages and even showed the numbers from
performance monitor, yet I got no reply. Here is the problem and the
solution to the problem. Is there some sort of Windows Vista FAQ where this
and other issues would be listed? TIA

Increasing GDI and User Handle Limits in Windows

Have you ever been working with a good number of applications at once? Do
you work with heavy workloads and large files every day? Alright, answer
this - have you ever had Windows buckle under the weight of all of these
applications and display error messages stating that the system is out of
memory or out of resources, buttons and menus do not work correctly, or you
get an error sound but no message on the screen? I've hit this numerous
times, to the point that I've lost work because of it...

Sometimes this happens even when you have a lot of system memory (RAM) still
available. For instance, open up Internet Explorer and hold Ctrl+N to open
up as many Internet Explorer windows as you can before menus, icons, and
menus start displaying incorrectly, disappear, buttons aren't clickable,
etc. Close a few out and check your Windows Task Manager in the
"Performance" tab; I bet you will find that a lot of your Physical Memory is
still available.
