FixWordSystemMemory is a system extension that works around a problem with
Microsoft Word version 5.1. Occasionally Word refuses to launch, claiming
there is a lack of system memory. This is usually an intermittent problem
and often launching Word again will succeed.

FixWordSystemMemory "fools" Word in to believing there's enough space in
the system heap, which bypasses the test and allows it to launch every time.

Version 2.1 fixes a bug which caused printing to fail for some people. It
also limit the scope of the patches so that the chance for
incompatibilities is reduced. I suggest that everyone who was using an
older version of the extension upgrade to this version. This program is
totally free.
