Hi, when I try to run "Memory Bandwidth" or "Cache and Memory" benchmarks I get "Windows is out of memory or resources. Close down some applications" error.

I think it's because Vista is using all of my memory for it's system cache. Right know I have only one IE7 window opened and out of 2045 MB i have 44 MB free. So is there a way around this problem?
 
Do you have Windows backup running? You might want to disable it. I am not sure if this will help but its worth a try.
 
I have this issue too. I have ran memtest for 19 hours without errors and everything is running fine with NO snags under vista, so what gives?
 
I have this issue too. I am running:
- Sandra Pro Home (Win32 x86) 2007.5.11.35
- Windows Vista Ultimate (up to date)
Have tried running the memory bandwidth test through a saved Sandra script, loading it by Windows' task manager at startup and at logon but it failed then too.
 
what gives... latest version of sandra and a fairly clean install of vista...

sandra just sucks... but its used by every review sites and I do just wanna see if I configured everything right...
