It usually means that you don't have the correct printer drivers installed,
but since you didn't provide any details about your computer, printer,
history of the machine, your network, etc. - that's as specific as I can
get.

Re: not enough memory

First I suggest that you make sure that you have the latest BIOS for your
Motherboard.
Second I suggest that you try downgrading to 2GB of memory and see if you
still have problems.
Also the following KB article may be relevant.

Are you running the RTM or SP1 release of Vista Ultimate 64?

What do you mean "print drivers are in the download folder"? You have to
*install* them. Just leaving them in the download folder does nothing.

Re: not enough memory

What I mean is the print drivers accessable on the computer, execpt that the Vista message "Windows cannot connect to the printer. There is not enough memory to complete this operation. Please close some programs and try again." comes up when I'm trying to install the drivers. Should the drivers be in a special place before I try to "Ad a printer"
