I can tell you form experience it is not your hard drives.  But 
what OS are you running on it, DOS/WIN or Win95.  I have two 
systems each has win 95 and 32 meg of ram.  I start the program on 
the frist machince not a problem but on the second machine the 
program complains that there is not any memory:-( but if you run 
DOOM95 and then run the program no problem!!!  I have not found 
why at this time.... but the machine that has no problems is SCSI 
II and the other is EIDE??!!
