I just got a message saying that 3d max ran out of memory and then it shut down. What memory? Is there anything I can do to pevent that hting again? I just clicked in turbo smooth to just to see how the model would look like and then I click back on editable poly and I got the error.

just to mention, my laptop has 2gb of ram and has more than enough hard drive space...

Under windows XP/2K 2 GB is the upper limit by default. The amount of harddsik space available or the virtual memory size does not matter.
Either get yourself a 64 Bit system (including Windows 64 Bit of course) with max 64 bit and more then 2 GB RAM or cut down the memory requirements of your scene.

But the things is I've been modeling this same project for about a week and had no problem until yesterday. I can't even touch my project anymore.
