I've recently installed a game on my computer and when I tried to play it a
message came up saying that my computer does not have enough swap space to
run the game. I had previously had this game installed and it ran fine on
this computer, but after trying to reinstall it won't play. How do I get
enough swap space to play the game?
 
Go to Control Panel/System/Advanced/Performance/Settings/Advanced/Virtual
Memory/Change. Set a custom swap (paging) file of 1534 MB (or more) in both
Initial and Maximum Size Windows. Click the Set button. Click ok to close all
the Windows. Reboot.

control panel->system applet->advanced tab Hit the settings button in the
performance box.
Go to the advanced tab. Towards the bottom you'll see the VM settings. Hit
change.
If your set up is typical you only have a single drive which should already
be selected. Click on "System managed size" then hit the set button. If you
don't hit set, the change will not stick.
Apply and OK your way out (always hit apply before OK when the two are
present) and allow the system to reboot.
