The most likely cause is not enough RAM (Random Access Memory), though we might be able to give you an alternative course of action if we knew what version of Windows you have
Don't worry about asking lots of questions, nobody ever learnt anything by staying quiet, and no one here will object to answering them for you

Ok so realistically you should have a MINIMUM of 128Mb ram and preferably 256Mb
Could you go to Start | Control Panel | System
On the General tab at the bottom, it will tell you how much RAM you have installed. could you post that back for us?
