Your problem is most likely that although you have 30 Meg free, your drive is
fragmented and 3 Meg is the largest contiguous block you have.  Defragment your
drive and I'll bet you can get more VM.  (Though I think cx's are limited to
16M total (virtual + physical) because the ROMs are not 32-bit clean.  Is this
the case or am I mistaken?
