Be sure that you have the most recent version of cty.dat installed. Some
versions were large enough to cause memory problems.
If you still have problems, you can butcher cty.dat if you don't need it much,
as in Sweepstakes. Just use a text editor to remove countries you don't expect
to work. Do this entire countries at a time, not partials. As cty.dat becomes
smaller, memory remaining becomes larger.
In the extreme, you can empty cty.dat completely, so that dir shows the file
cty.dat present but having 0 bytes. When I tried this on my MS-DOS machine, I
gained 116,424 bytes of available memory, as reported by TRLog. (This gain
happens to exceed the file size of the current cty.dat by about 50%). Of
course, I also lost all country information in TRLog.
