So Mathematica is the unique program I know of which is able to hang while blocking mouse and keyboard control even for the windows task manager call by Crtl+Alt+Del. Your problem is that windows not really is able to manage such a tremendous amount of data. Try to enlarge the pagefile to at least double ram volume on all used partitions. -- Roland Franzius +++ exactly <<n>> lines of this message have value <<FALSE>> +++
