Word version? "Microsoft 98" must be your Windows OS version, because
the Word application skipped from "... 97" to "...2000" then "...XP"
(there was an Outlook 98 though). Do you even have Word, as it does NOT
normally come with Windows? If you don't have Word, Windows MAY be
attempting to open Word documents with the Wordpad application that does
come with Windows.

Quantity of Main RAM? How much, if any, used by your video accelerator?

How much free space on the drive your swap file is on?

How much is "plenty"? How much do you have? Have you turned off or limited
the size of the page file in some way?

What is "Microsoft 98"? Do you mean "Windows 98"? Which computer is running
Windows 98, the one with the problem or the one without? If the computer
with the problem is running Windows 98, you should be asking in a Windows 98
newsgroup, not in here in microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics.
