Resolution 3 (rare, SMS only)

Recently an SMS customer was receiving “Out of System Resources” constantly from the time the software loaded. She had used Windows 7's “Show Windows Side By Side” option (accessed by right clicking the taskbar and selecting it from the menu, OR by dragging a window to the left or right edge of the screen) to scale the SMS window to exactly half of the screen.

To test, I held the mouse cursor over the SMS window's 'Maximize' button and used the spacebar to clear the 'Out of System Resources' error. In the split-second before the error popped back up, I clicked the Maximize button, and the SMS window maximized while the error popped up again. After clearing the error this time, it did not occur again. Closed SMS and re-opened and got no error. Opened a few orders, edited and saved, no errors.

Through further testing the error did not occur again. My conclusion is that something about the window re-sizing caused the error.

  1. Open the Control Panel.
  2. Search for “Appearance”
  3. Choose “Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows”
  4. On the Visual Effects tab, verify that:
    1. “Show window contents while dragging” is unchecked
    2. “Animate windows when minimizing and maximizing” is unchecked
  5. Verify the error does not appear when re-sizing the window from it's smallest possible width to it's largest possible width.
