Hi guys,
im using about 4 gig ram...and during my renders it just uses 1.5 gig of it...and then it says you are out of memoy and closes the rendering.
Why?

If you have 32bit Windows, the largest RAM size per app (without the 3GB switch) is 2GB. So even if you have 4GB, your RAM limit for user space apps is 2GB.

From those theoreticaly available 2 GB you have to subtract some for mapped graphics card RAM and loaded codecs (especialy Qucktime eats up a lot of RAM) and you easily end up with only 1.5 GB left from your initial 4
