Also, if I click on F9 they appear, just to disappear again when creating a new message. <br /><br />I un-installed and re-installed Lotus and the three patches, I have re-applied the template, nothing will do it.<br /><br />Do you have any fix for it? I have two users that have the same problem on the same type of laptops. <br /><br />If installed on a PC, or another type of laptop, it works. <br /><br />Thank you. <br /><br />mlogigan@technomuses.caAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17199472.post-44365012277317617842011-08-09T06:35:55.444+10:002011-08-09T06:35:55.444+10:00@Mike, sorry there's a bit of a typo in the or...@Mike, sorry there's a bit of a typo in the original post but the concept is the same.<br /><br />The memory limit for 32 bit Windows XP is 4GB BUT the memory limit for applications running on that system - including the Lotus Notes Client is actually 2GB.Gavin Bollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13833941398375568706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17199472.post-72338134871545142272011-08-09T06:32:53.973+10:002011-08-09T06:32:53.973+10:00@Dean, I haven't seen that problem yet but I&#...@Dean, I haven't seen that problem yet but I'll keep my eye out for it.Gavin Bollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13833941398375568706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17199472.post-20314610831062569592011-08-09T04:46:42.781+10:002011-08-09T04:46:42.781+10:00http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa366778%2...http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa366778%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#physical_memory_limits_windows_xp<br /><br />a few seconds with google would confirm what the actual 32-bit XP limit is.

Windows 32 can use up to 4 GB of your physical memory. The 2 GB myth comes from the fact, that every process in Windows 32 gets his own private address space. This private address space has a 2GB limit. With the use of the /3gb switch the limit can be extended to 3 GB. With the PAE Extension Win 32 can use even more physical memory then 4 GB.Ralf M Petternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17199472.post-26742505685750774622011-04-21T12:06:27.394+10:002011-04-21T12:06:27.394+10:00Gavin, I would recommend going to 8.5.2 FP2 which ...Gavin, I would recommend going to 8.5.2 FP2 which fixes the SSO issue that existed for 64 bit WIndows.<br /><br />DanDan Soareshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08618788822293801333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17199472.post-62077578615410760732011-04-21T09:16:21.632+10:002011-04-21T09:16:21.632+10:00Gavin,
