You may well have too MUCH memory.  You may be causing math errors in 
the antiquated Mac OS 9 memory logic.  You certainly don't need to use 
VM if you have 1.5GB of RAM.  Turn it off.

Did you have these errors when you only had 512MB?

Actually, I had goofy 'disk full' errors in many programs when I went 
from Mac OS 8 to 9.  They were spurious, caused by some bizarre 
incompatibility between 8 and 9.  Make sure you have versions of 
software which are claimed to work under Mac OS 9.
