running out of memory help

alright so here's the low down.
my computer is running out of memory and it can't patch the latest patch. so does anyone know any solutions to make the maple file smaller? I don't want to buy anything to make the memory bigger lol.
Oh and does anyone know if i can delete the videos on the maple file like the beast tamer cutscene. those videos take up so much memory
thanks

AFTER it's installed, the Maplestory folder will take up about 6 GB of your hard drive.
BUT- it takes about 4x MORE than that to download and install the game. Patching takes a little less, but it still takes a lot of free disk space.
You need at least 25 GB free disk space to fully install the game, and close to that to install a large patch.

KrystiCakes probably has the best idea- if you don't understand what's going on inside the computer, it's probably better to find a friend or teacher who can help you free up disk space if you need it.
I can give you instructions about how to do some basic cleanup on your hard drive if you really want to give it a try.

You can delete the videos, yes.

Also, how do people even run out of memory? If all you have is maybe 10gigs or something I can understand.
But then again I hate having a million things installed onto my computer at one time. I don't download videos or pictures either.

You could try finding a big usb and just playing maple on that.

I don't believe you can delete any of the files. If you do, I'm pretty sure you'll get an error saying you're missing files.
