Virtual memory question

I have a couple games, that my kids play. They used to be able to play
them, without any problems. Now when you click on them, a box comes up
saying "This program requires at least 3mb of free virtual memory to run".

I'm showing 1149mb allocated, and 17827 mb on the space available.

Could anyone tell me where to start looking, or what other information is
needed, to get these programs to run again.

Many thanks.

Thanks Andrew, but the it's already set to what you suggested. Still no go.
I'll keep searching for a solution.
