Win95; Logging on I was greeted with a warning:
"No spare stack pages, may be necessary to increase the setting of MinSps in System.ini-Currently 3 Sps allocated". Is this as serious as I am led to believe? What action should be taken? Thanks for any help.

If it only happens once, no. If it happens every time you log on, then Yes, change the entry as suggested. Start with 5.

The entry may not be there.
If it isn't , then add the line MinSPs=4 to the [386enh] section of your System.ini.
If that doesn't do it, make it MinSPs=8.
It usually pops up after installing some software containing a corrupt or incompatible device driver.
Adding the line usually gets rid of the problem very satisfactorily.

Thank you both, and the entry was not to be found. Appreciate the additional information as far as adding the line. This was all new to me.
