DICOM, file-dicom.exe failed to allocate 3758161922 bytes

GIMP 2.6.1
Windows XP Home SP3

I tried to open a DICOM file, and received a memory allocation error: gmem.c:156: failed to allocate 3758161922 bytes

file-dicom.exe produced this.

The DICOM file size is 1.7MB.

My machine's memory is 1.5GB. I have two page files, each 1.5GB

Does this look like a code problem, or could the dcm file actually blow up to 3.8GB? Shall I try expanding my page files?

Regards, Bob

Hi

This is most probably a code problem.

Thanks.

Also, 3758161922 is E0010002, a suspiciously non-computational number. Looks as if the program got confused with an error code.
