I created a Music Project to burn some CDs to a Music DVD.  Had the project saved, and tried to burn the DVD.  Had 300 songs and still had over 1.5Gs left on the DVD project.  Burn stopped at song 112 with a low memory issue.  I have a brand new Gateway computer with 2Gs of RAM.  What is the problem?

Perhaps song number 112 (or there abouts) what is different about that music and the one just before or just after?  Any music you downloaded from an on-line store?  You can't use them directly in the program.
Have you shut down all other running programs?  Checked for malware?  Defragged lately?

Just as a thought - if the RAM was increased AFTER Windows was installed, the pagefile will be too small.

General rule of thumb is to allocate double the capacity to the pagefile as you have conventional RAM so you should set pagefile.sys to round the 4000 MB mark

You can do this in control panel, system, advanced

It was track 112.  When I separated the file, it then stopped at track 13 which was the original 112.  I deleted the whole CD from the playlist and reburned with no problem.

Burned a disc with 400 songs over the weekend with no problem.

Thanks for your help.
