You can do this by going to your USER INI file (the one in your User folder that has the name USER.INI, where "USER" is your user name), opening it for editing and adding: [mentor] ttable_size=N where 'N' is the number of MEGABYTES that you want the Mentor engine to use. For your 64MB machine, you should be able to safely raise this to at least 16. When and if you add more memory to your box, you can raise this value as well. You should rarely need anything more than 32MB for your pretty slow machine, though, unless you plan to do analysis that will last for a very long time (i.e. hours). jm
