After Effects Could Not Allocate Sound Memory Preview Error

I bought this AE file URL...Here is the error message I get when trying to render...After Effects error: Unable to allocate enough memory to render the current frame (18172 x 18172 @ 8 bpc). Either decrease the memory requirements for the rendering of this frame, or install more RAM. (12805). For more information, see adobe.com/learn_ae_mem (7 :: 66)
I even tried to render the project without making any changes. No luck
Is my laptop inadequate for this type of work?When it says - (18172 x 18172 @ 8 bpc) is that the resolution it's trying to output? The project is 6 seconds long and 1920x1080 resolution. I can render it at half resolution, but not at the 1080 res.
