First pixelmon lagged, now it says I dont have enough memory

I updated pixelmon after not playing for a long time, to 4.0.7. When I ran the game, it had an insane amount of lag, making it completely unplayable. I closed it and ran normal minecraft and it ran perfect. Totally smooth, no issues. I reinstalled minecraft and the pixelmon launcher. Now when I try to launch it it says it cant create the java virtual machine and that I don't have enough memory. What is causing this? What can fix it? Please help.

I know that My PC has enough memory to run this game, I've played plenty with no issues before.

The launcher checks your available memory before launching. Close other programs running in the background. Chrome and firefox are both big memory hogs

Chrome may eat alot of memory, but my computer has more than enough to spare. RIght now I'm trying a completely clean install of minecraft and pixelmon

is your system 32 or 64 bit? and which version of Java do you have (ie 32/64 again)? if the answer is 32-bit/x86 then the maximum RAM you can allocate is 1G or 1024M

My mistake. Somehow my java was 32bit and way out of date. updating it now.
