This version of Hoster recommends at least 1500 MB RAM for Windows
Vista. Thus, it may not run reliably on this computer as is.
OPTION #1: Click the "Run 3.40" button to run Hoster 3.40,
which will run better with low RAM.
OPTION #2: Install at least 1500 MB RAM, then Hoster will run
reliably. You can click "Continue" to try to run, or
"Cancel" to close Hoster.
OPTION #3: If you can't add more RAM, but you have another
computer with enough RAM, copy this URL to your browser
for instructions on how to move Hoster to that computer:

Hoster34.exe should be located in C:\Program Files\Micro Technology Unlimited\Hoster if it is included. I don't know if it is or not. You will have to create your own desktop shortcut to it if you want to use it.
You are at the minimum for running Vista and Hoster on that laptop but there are somethings that you can do to help.
Did you do all the things you need to do to Vista to get Hoster to behave that are listed here?
http://www.mtu.com/upgrades/hoster/v...de-hoster4.htm The link to this page is also listed in your manual as well as in the installation setup program.
The second thing is make sure nothing else is running in the background that isn't needed like your anti-virus/anti-spyware program(s).
There is a very helpful list located here
http://www.blackviper.com/ at this website that will help you to close down some unecessary processes that are running thanks to Vista. Closing some or all of these will help free up enough memory.
On laptops the video card gets a shared portion of the memory, so if too many things are using up the memory then your play is the one to suffer.
