Trouble running DP on 1.33 iBook

I have a 1.33 ghz iBook. I've been trying to run DP4 and 4.5 on it. It crashes when I click record or play. I can't see how to increase the ram for the program like in the old days. It is not in the "get info" menu anymore.

I think the Ibook has 256 of ram. Perhaps that is too small. .

Does running DP on an iBook have it's own set of requirements?
256 ram, 60 gig HD, 10.4OS.

I see I have to learn a new set of keystrokes.

Cubase LE seems to run fine (Came with my Alesis Multimix).

I've been running the program on desktop systems since 2.6. On my desktop i run 4.6 on a 2gig dual G6, 1.5 gig ram. Smooth as can be.

Any info would help.

Hi Patricdeimon
You should put more Ram in your machine, it really makes the difference, at least 1 Gb more.
Also update your DP version to 4.52, I know that with your actual
version preferences are corrupted by Tiger, as mine were, and I had to update.
Good Luck
DP is CPU and RAM hungry!!!

I actually run DP on a PowerBook that has a slower processor than yours. But it has more RAM. Very easy to add more.

Cubase LE runs because that's not the full big daddy version, so I imagine it doesn't have as much to load into memory.
