I had exactly the same problem.  If you are using the sources listed in the
APDA draft, that could be one problem.  Between the draft and the release of
the A-W version of IM V.5 they changed the source.  Primarily to enchance the
eror checking.  If you are using the sources listed in the _release_ version
of IM V 5, them make sure there really is enuf memory to run, the example
checksfor the BCD pack, and under the new system  this is not a good check,
I use a larger package like the disk init package...  for really involved
cDevs I try to allocate a large chuck o'memory and then dispose of it to
make sure I can still run (usually a bit larger than the handle to my
existing storage, if I am already open)...
Best bet is to rewrite EnoughRoomToRun to reflect the memory you're really
going to need.  

Hope this helps...
