    One of your strategies to free up some memory (by nuking the swap
screen), was a step in the right direction, but I have found it doesn't
always give you back everything you need (especially if you have also
been using large fonts, which are held in memory).  You can further free
some memory by going to the menu item for changing the screen format.
You don't have to (or want to) make any changes, but clicking the OK
gadget on the screen format screen will blast away some of the stuff 
being cached in memory only after it has been selected by the user during
that session.  So you can squeeze a little more of it out that way.

    If that doesn't provide you with enough, then run one of the defrag.
programs suggested by the other posters.  Good luck.
