After Effects out of memory and 3D layers

i have a

dual core 3.6 ghz

3.25 gb ram

hp workstation xw8200

 

my question working in cs4 after effects , using zaxwerks 3d proanimator , sapphire effects.  in present project computer keeps crashing , cant render single 3d layer 2 effects on it.   has been taxing make rendering progress ever.  lots of "out of memory" errors , "open gl errors" both leading file corruption , renaming , crashing.

 

it new computer plenty of space on 2 drives. have project caching pointing c drive programs , has 170 gb of space , source , ae projects on e tb.

 

what solution?  render settings?  tried secret setting of cache dumping.  didnt help.

 

when comes 3d layers computer not big , bad enough?

 

what suggest proper ram , core use after effects in way?

 

thanks,

what memory , multiprocessing settings? have tiny amount of ram ae work. that's first thing jumps out me.

the second thing opengl errors. turn off opengl. don't know of uses render , don't use in preview window.
