Search the forums, there are many posts about this error.

You can try putting -maxmem=512 in the shortcut "Target" box, so it looks something like this:

"C:\Games\ArmA\ARMA.EXE -maxmem=512"

these are my vga specs:

610MHz Core, 768MB 2000MHz GDDR3 Memory

so i can use : "C:\Games\ArmA\ARMA.EXE -maxmem=768"

Is that video or system memory ?

It´s system memory. As for the parameter check the other posts about it, there are plenty of them.
