I'll thank you in this thread aswell
I have just installed HEM and just to check the speed had it display ~100k hands in the reports tab. It crashed on me (and took Firefox down with it). I got an error message about not enough virtual memory. I believe I have 2GB of RAM. At least dxdiag says it's 2046MB. I did change the virtual memory values to 400-400 according to your tutorial.
Does this have anything to do with that? Should I increase the values?
