Thanks Steve, however even trying to log in to WP on a new computer with 8 GB of memory, I still cannot log in and just get the same error. Although I was on the old XP low memory computer when I was trying to do the upgrade.
It has nothing to do with the memory on your computer; this is a server-side setting for WordPress.
As @sterndata said, its not your PC’s memory its the server’s memory, contact your web-host about this 😀

Thank you Steve. I looked at your links. Will call my host to see if they can increase the php.ini file memory.

Hi Steve:
My host sent me instructions on how to add the memory to my ftp files. It works great now.
Here is how I did it for others on the forum:
Step 1:Connect via FTP to your hosting package’s primary FTP account.
Step 2: Navigate to the /cgi-bin folder and determine if you have a file there called php.ini. If you do, please download it to your computer for editing.
Step 3: Once the file is downloaded open it with Notepad on a PC or TextEdit on a Mac. If the file did not exist create a new file and save it with the file name php.ini (must be lowercase).
Step 4: Add the below lines of code to the file and save it.
memory_limit = 64M
output_buffering = 2048
Step 5: Upload the saved file to the FTP server and place it in the /cgi-bin fodler.
Step 6: Navigate to the /cgi-bin/.php folder and locate the php.ini.coalesced file and delete it.
Step 7: Browse to any PHP enable page on your site and the new settings will be enabled.
Keep in mind that method may be specific to your host.
