Why are your projects becoming bigger and bigger? Just curious. Is it
due to the polyo**** of the models you are using or is it due to using
texture maps instead of procedural textures?
There are lots of ways to optimize things so as to not bog down your
system resources.
My guess also would be that you need more RAM, especially since you're
running Vista (hear it's a bit of a memory hog).
