I had the same problem. Digi says it (maybe) happens if you have 1GB or more ram.

Try setting the Paging File Initial Size to 1065 or lower in
Virtual Memory. 1024 is the recommended value.

To set this, go to:
SystemProperties>Advanced>Performance>Settings>Adv anced>Virtual Memory>Change

I put 1024 in init. and max. - and it works fine here

If you select around the area and consolidate it before using the pencil.. does that work? There was a similar thread recently on the Mac side where this can happen when you have imported (via OMF) files.
