16 megs is just not enough memory to do most renderings in 3D Studio, especially R3. Try using very small texture maps, preferrably gif's and JPG's wherever possible, don't use shadows or reflections, use as few lights as possible, keep your meshes at very low density… basically constrain the HELL out of yourself. Or buy some more memory. I've got @ 32megs in my machines and hardly ever swap out, though I do in large meshes with large texture maps.
