    Hi

    I have been recieving a message from my system saying Virtual memory is running low, and it says it is paging the files or something along those lines.

    I have been reading up on this and it says my ram is full and it has to start storing things on the HD.

    What i want to know is how do i resolve this problem.

    I have 512MB of ram on my PC

    Cheers

    Hi

    Soz About the crappy message. I am kind of new to this

    I am having problems with my ram and virtual it is telling me i am running low on virtual memory, and as this is connected to ram in some way i want to know if there is a problem with my ram or if i can clean it up a little.

    I have my system spec but am struggling to put it on this site, i will now try and add it as an attachment.

    If it does not work the you can ignore this post if you want

    Cheers TheTick.

    Hi,
    TxTazDad is right on.
    Set your page file size to 1 1/2 to 2 times your RAM.
    No More.

    Bad out.
