R.click my computer,properties,advanced,virtual memory,change button,select:
"let system manage" click set 2X,close out.A restart will be prompted if done
correctly.Also,increase the ram memory,will increase paging file + system
memory.

Hi,

Let Windows manage the virtual memory.
Right clicking on My Computer - Properties - Advanced Tab -
Performance - Settings - Advanced Tab - Change, and select System
Managed Size. Click Ok until all dialog boxes are closed and reboot the
system.

As for System Restore, take a look at these troubleshooting steps to
take when System Restore fails to restore:

That reply proves once again that you have absolutely no understanding
of Windows Memory Management.

Please refrain from posting replies to subjects that you have no

This could be a file permissions issue. See the following article in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
