error message: low virtual memory

S

stuart

hi there,
Virtual memory or pagefile is used on your
harddrive as a temporary storage which acts like ram.It
is usually one and a half times the size of your ram eg
If you have 128Mb ram your virtual memory would be 192Mb.
(I would recommend having at least 128Mb of ram.)
to check the size of your virtual memory right click on
My Computer go to Properties,click the advanced tab and
in the box that says Performance click settings and
another window should open.In the performance options
window click the Avanced tab and in the box that says
Virtual Memory click change.
The Initial size should be at least one and a half times
the size of your ram the maximum size double the initial
size.
To check the size of your ram right click My
Computer,Properties, and go to the General tab and at the
bottom of this page you should see the size of your ram.
Hope this helps.
