Cannot create CHM output in RoboHelp 10

When attempting to create CHM for a large RoboHelp 10 project, the process fails with the following error:

HHA Version 4.74.8702

htmlproc.cpp(114) : Assertion failure: (pszTmp == m_pCompiler->m_pHtmlMem->psz)

There are 2400 topics in the project. Some 'out of memory' errors have recently been displayed when working on the project. I have followed some basic advice which I have found on the forums to change the path for the output file. I have also created a new Single Source Layout, and tried a variety of settings within the HTML Help Options dialog, with no success. I would really appreciate some advice.  Thanks very much.

When generating a .CHM file, I get a "There is not enough memory available for this task. Quick one or more programs to increase the available memory, and then try again" message. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Lisa

Errrr......maybe do as the message suggests? Quit some of the open applications and try again.

Try HHA Version 4.74.8702 in Google.

Here's one result that may apply.

Thanks for the advice. I followed the sugestions to move the project to a directory closer to the root drive, as well to use smaller folder names, but no luck getting Microsoft HTML help to compile.
