You haven't told us what type of machine you're on, or how much ram  
you have (it might very well be that you don't have enough ram on your  
system to load the data you're trying to load, no?)

Anyway, still .. I'm guessing that:
1. You're on windows; and
2. You're stuck in 32bit land?

Look through these:

Hope that helps,
