set your page file to SYSTEM MANAGED instead of limiting its size.

Yes, more RAM would help.

Yes, there is another solution.

But, it's:

Impossible to say based on the dismally tiny bit of useless info you

provided. As it says, it wants you to mod your page file; why don't you

just try that first?

Re: LOW VIRTUAL MEMORY---PAGING FILE

 

perhaps you simply

ought to address the

message firstly:

 

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826513

 

what i would suggest

is to custom set the

initial size to 2 and the

max to 1152.

 

in addition you should

also download a freeware

from microsoft.com called

pagedefrg and set it to run

at boot time.

 

if the above still doesn't

help, then perhaps its

time to look into increasing

your ram.

How much RAM memory?

 

Try Ctrl+Alt+Delete to select Task Manager and click the Performance

Tab. Under Commit Charge what is the Total, the Limit and the Peak?

 

You should be able to gather more information from Task Manager. With

the Processes tab open select View, Select, Columns and check the boxes

before Peak Memory Usage and Virtual Memory size. What are the figures

for the 6 processes using the largest amounts?

 

If one of your programmes has a memory leak leaving the computer on 24/7

will exacerbate the problem, which you might otherwise live with.

 

I would be interested in seeing a Disk Defragmenter report. Open Disk

Defragmenter and click on Analyse. Select View Report and

click on Save As and Save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents

Folder and post a copy. Do this before running Disk Defragmenter as it

is more informative.

Hope this helps.

Re: LOW VIRTUAL MEMORY---PAGING FILE

 

Learn to leave things as they should be.

There is nothin to be gained from setting "virtual"memory(pagefile)to

anything other than system managed.

Pagefile WILL expand/contract as and when needed.
