hey all - virtual memory help

[P J C]

I just upgraded my RAM to 1024 and am not sure what my optimal virtual
memory settings
should be for the best possible performance.
I am using my computer for mostly pro audio (Sonar) and gaming.
Thank You all.

Hi,

Unless you want to have a full memory dump, I'd set the initial size to
100MB (no max). Read up on Vm in WinXP here:
