I just bought this software from a computer show yesterday, tried to install it, came up saying that I must have Virtual Memory enabled. I have 1152Mb of RAM, I laugh in the face of Virtual Memory. This &*%$£@ program MUST have virtual memory to run, and I don't want to take memory out of my G4 every time I want to run the program. I tried RAM Doubler but that won't work with 1152Mb, and it won't work from a RAM disk either.

Any ideas to make this run, apart from take the memory out?

Did you try simply turning on Virtual Memory in the Memory control Panel? Turn it on and set it to 1 MB over the physical amount you have and it should work like a charm. Does for me.

I could be wrong, but I don't think you can turn on VM when you have a certain amount of physical RAM..

Yes, virtual memory cuts off after so much memory is installed (I think 512Mb, I have 1152Mb) I have tried this, and also tried RAM Doubler, but that doesn't work with the amount of memory I have either.
