Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I tried installing MMedit on a Windows 7 machine. The installation seems OK, however when you launch it you get the message

"Unable to allocate virtual address space". When you hit OK, the program terminates.

MMedit ued to work on this PC, but I am trying to re-install MMedit after replacing the hard drive with a Solid State Drive.

Try installing again and selecting the "XP fix" option.

The newer Liberty Basic runtime that MMedit uses has a problem with some installations.
The older runtime is OK and that is what you get with the XP fix option.
I have renamed it to "Memory fix" in the next update.

I still have hope that the author of Liberty Basic will have a fix for the problem soon. I don't want to revert to the old runtime for everyone.

If you don't want to reinstall, replace MMedit.exe with the one in this ZIP.
