 * Upgrade bombed out: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 262144 bytes exausted(
   tried to allocate 77824 bytes)in /hermes/bosweb/web104/b1046/ipg……etc…on line
   824. Get message on WP login that upgrade was not completed and to continue the
   upgrade, but when I click that option I get the above Fatal error. Also can’t
   access/update Pages or Posts without a similar Fatal error. I have 2G memory 
   on my desktop. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO to fix my problem. I don’t know anything 
   about PHP or MySQL. Wish I could just keep the old WP version, but don’t know
   how to restore that. PLEASE HELP!

 * Seems some files did not get upgraded. Do a [manual upgrade](http://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress#Manual_Update)
   by using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) or whatever file management
   application your host provides.
