I often get this message when opening SolidWorks 2016:
Do you also have the same cose?
Simply add memory ;-)

Yes I have the same thing.
It's not because the job doesn't have enough memory.
Often it happens to me when I have a lot of open plans. But sometimes it happens for no reason.

How much ram do you have?
And what process?
and what is the activity of your PC at the time of this message
See the percentage of proc and memory usage

Hello,
Check that you don't have another process (program or malware) that is pumping all the memory.
Otherwise if it's following a version migration, maybe the pc is no longer enough to display everything.
Otherwise decrease the quality of 3D visualization in the performance options.

What if you turn off your second screen?
I usually ONLY have SolidWorks open
It is often at the opening itself, without any heavy parts or assemblies.
My post configuration is pretty good it seems to me:
That's since I put Windows 10 + SW2016
And every once in a while, I get this message:
And I forgot to mention that it doesn't cause any crashes though!
Just these messages that appear.
Yes, that's exactly what happened to me too. Strangely it's not all the time
One of the pilots perhaps?
Edit: A beginning of an answer here
"... That is not memory resources. That refers to GDI objects. There are several threads on the forum about GDI objects.
When you have lots of stuff open it uses lots of GDI objects. Every icon, button and object in a user interface uses a GDI object. There is a limit in Windows on how many GDI objects that are available. Closing programs frees up the objects.
You are not running out of memory, you are running out of GDI objects... "
------------------------------
The problem would not come from the memory but from the "GDI objects", basically, a graphical interface.
And also from the virtual memory of Windows.
We should dig into this side.
See to increase these two values in the register or I don't know where =)

It's probably a problem of video memory access.
So maybe the driver has not been updated following the Win XX -> Win 10 toggle,
and so it pumps in the memory of the processor and not the graphics card.

Thanks @Pascal, but how does it work?
Hi Alain,
If it is a problem that has just appeared; try to see a stroke of CCleaner and a system cleanup followed by a good defragmentation. Maybe it can solve the problem...

http://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/getpdf.aspx/4AA5-7540EEW.pdf?ver=2.0
Reading it's 16/32 giga of mini RAM

For my part, I have 16GB of ram and I modified the virtual memory to initial 32000 maximum 64000 on my system ssd. because with solidworks running the recommendation is at 24507 MB
Since no more message of insufficient memory

Yes, try to clean everything before resorting to that.
Good luck!;;)
