In the illustrator cs2 I typed some letters that I wanted to make 3D, then checked the box for preview and it started rendering artwork and then it said that I didn't have enough ram. But I do have enough ram, 256. The computer I used is at my work place where I have installed only Photoshop cs2 and Illustrator cs2. I don't get it...???

Actually 256 MB of RAM for CS2 is extremely low. I'm often running into memory issues with 2 gigs on larger files. Adobe eats as much RAM as it can get and you should probably invest in some slots soon.
That said the 3D function in Illustrator is one of the most memory intensive functions in the program and it's understandable that memory issues may occur. |

Lombi is right the 3D function is a ram hog. Time for a upgrade ;-)

Hvala.
But it also happened when I wanted to change the swatch color of the letters, the same message appeared but it changed the color though. Nema veze, I should buy a new computer. Can thou recommend a configuration with which I can run 3D max, photoshop and illustrator the best? Not to expensive though. Or is it that my question is not in place? |

What I would suggest right now is an AMD x2 with around 2 gigs of ram and a RAID drive configuration. Everything else is completely negotiable.

Assigning a section of my secondary HDD (bought for music storage) as scratch disk helped me a bit with memory issues in PS... Currently running with 1GB ram and its not enough by itself for big pieces. Maybe assign some diskspace on another disk (not the drive you use) would help things a little?
