Thanks for the advice!
The lowmemory switch did allow it to run and connect for two player
game. 
I know that this switch will limit the use of some features such as
new graphics. Is this due to the limits set by the switch or does it
still use up the resources it can find? I just wonder if it will have
a big effect on performanceof the game.
