Memory Problems
Continued
Problem Possible Cause Solution
The device gets
slower each time
I use it.
Too many document
shortcuts are taking up
memory.
1. See how many
recently used
document shortcuts
exist by pressing
the Windows key,
then select
Documents .
2. Remove seldom
used document
shortcuts by
deleting them from
the Windows/
Recent folder.
Memory needs to be
refreshed.
Save your data, then
perform a full reset.
(See Chapter 4, “Using
Power,” for more on
this.)
Not enough space to
save my work.
Device ran out of
storage memory.
■
Close all open
applications and
delete files that are
not being used.
■
Adjust the amount
of available storage
memory (see
“Adjusting Memory”
earlier in this
chapter).
■
Upgrade memory if
needed.
■
Use an ATA Flash
RAM PC Card for
additional storage.
