Jack Needleman <[email protected]> :
It looks like -overid- wants to make a big matrix (15760x15760) that
your current memory settings preclude (help memory).  You should
probably use -ivreg2- for this model, though, with appropriate SE
adjustments depending on your data structure.

ssc inst ivreg2
ssc inst ranktest
ivreg2 mcs female age bach black hs (alcohol = liquornear bluelaw),
first robust

More useful advice probably depends on more info on the research
question and data...
