N2 losing memory

I've been operating my game for approx. 1.5 years and the program is working well. The problem is it is losing memory/space. I can't load many of the tracks because it says it can't load the complete track description. About 6 months ago it started when I noticed that it didn't show me all of the set-up options for racing and qualifying, only one or two. I contacted Sierra and they said it was a memory problem and I needed to find the hungry program,etc. I haven't found the culprit nor am I sure that's the problem. I operate the game from my CD under DOS, not Win95 ( I created a boot disc) and everything works properly. I have 2 questions (1) When I'm exiting the game from DOS, and before Win95 starts, I go to a page that gives me the options of either "exit and save changes" or "exit and not save changes". In the past I exited and saved changes. Could this have contributed to using up memory? (2) My N2 folder on my hard disk contains approx 89.1mb's. Does that appear to be abnormal and if so could I delete that entire folder and re-load the program after downloading any info/ set-ups I want to save. I'd appreciate any info or wisdom you might pass to me. Thanx in advance, F. (delete".com" from return address to reply)
