Hi,
This can be caused by a couple of things - low memory or miss matched memory (usually from an upgrade).

Your external hard drive is storage and not memory. The new memory sticks are suspect... who installed them? You must not only match the memory very carefully to your motherboard but also with other memory you may already have and each other. If you have miss-matched memory (ram cocktail) then you get allocation errors. Just because it fits doesn't mean it's right.

I think this is probably your problem,
