If you are runing an Athlon 64 familiy processor the mem error could be caused by the processor overheating since the memory controller is integrated on die, when was the last time you lceaned your heatsinks and/or replaced the thermal interface compound?

System specs are always needed for these issues
But as you are getting low memory warnings on exit I would say you either need more ram or to up the pagefile limit at very least

SH3 is a memory hungry game
GWX does add to that too

I notice you still haven't notified anyone of your RAM. FYI 1GB is the least you should be using (the game will struggle along on 512MB) and 2GB is ideal

He must've been really tight on memory, with a smallish pagefile, so it was either page out the kernel or the game (everything else already having gone). "Sorry, game, off with you!"

I've only got 1gb and GWX works fine, not glitchey at all, not even in the harbours!
I'd need 2gb for SH4 though
