I can't find any info on this particular problem.
My system is running WinXP with 2gb of Ram
(Ram has been there since installation of XP)
Windows uses heaps of Virtual Ram, even though I've manually set the
Page file to 100mb, it still doesn't obey.
Why is Virtual Ram so full if I have only 650mb being used and 1.3gig
of free RAM?
The memory manager seems dumb.
I don't see why Windows can't use my physical ram till it's 75% full
then start using virtual ram.
Any ideas?
Please don't say "turn off virtual ram". I've read that this can be
dangerous.
An option is to create a ram drive where I set my temp directory to,
but I know that if it gets full I will be in trouble, I've tried that
in the past.
I tried using support.microsoft.com, but that site makes no sense :-(
