Such a message was common back in Windows 98, but you hardly see it nowadays. Check the virtual memory settings and the free disk space. And indeed, close other programs running. And maybe these users have exceptional things in their personal macro files and such?
If all is fine on other PC's and you can't find a specific cause, then just go back to the factory or company image.

Good Morning:
Windows 7 (64 Bit) and Excel 2010 (32 Bit)
I have an end user who has created documents and created separate Excel worksheets imported data from SAP. Now, 2 people in our company have this issue with Excel. She is getting error messages saying:
"Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications."
1. We have taken out the Store and display links under START MENU in the toolbar. We have deleted all TEMP files in Users Profile, in the Windows directory and used the Disk Cleaner to cover the rest.
2. We right clicked on the START BUTTON and Opened Windows Explorer (and Excel and Outlook) Clicked Organize | Layout and Unchecked the Details Pane and Preview Pane.
3. We ran the FIXIT program and found nothing extraordinary.
Does anyone have any ideas out there on how to resolve this error from coming up on pretty much any file she opens?
Also, does the 64 Bit version of Excel give more RAM Memory to the application?
Thanks for your help on this matter.
