I have a Compaq Presario S4000NX with Xp Home Edition installed on it.

I wish to free more Virtual Memory in Compaq Presario S4000NX.
There is always very frequently a message saying it trying to increase it.
What can I do to increase the memory?

It seems that a lot of microsoft applications are running in
Services in system configuration Utility using up all the virtual
memory. When I click on some programs it sometimes don't even display.
Kind of like half invisible.

Could I get rid of some below by unchecking them?
If so which ones should I uncheck? Which are useful and which are not?

Services in system configuration Utility

1. Alerter
2. Application Layer Gateway Service
3. Application Management
4. Computer Browser
5. Symantec Event Manager
6. COM+ system application
7. Cryptographic services
8. DHCP Client
9. DNS Client
10. Error Reporting Service
11. Event Log
12. Com+ Event System
13. Fast User Switching Compatibility
14. Help and Support
15. Server
16. Workstation
17. TCP/IP NetBios Helper
18. Netmeeting Remote Desktop Sharing
19. Netowork Connections
20. Network Location Awareness
21. Plug and Play
22. IPSEC Services
23. Protected Storage
24. Remote Access Connection Manager
25. Remote Procedure Call
26. Security Accounts Manager
27. Secondary logon
28. System Event Notification
29. Shell Hardware Detection
30. Print Spooler
31. SSDP Discovery Service
32. Telephony
33. Terminal Services
34. Distributed Link Tracking Client
35. Upload Manager
36. WebClient
37. Windows Management Instrumentation
38. Wirless Zero Configuration

Click to expand...

Read up at www.aumha.org/win5/a/xpvm.htm and se if any of the items in
Problems are relevant.

Also check for any runaway program. R-click in the Taskbar, take Task
Manager. On the Processes page use View - Choose columns to have
'Memory usage' and 'Memory delta' showing and then look for a process
using a large, and continually increasing amount of memory. One
possibility is that you have installed one of the programs that purports
to 'manage' or 'Free up' Memory - if you have, throw it out as hard as
you can
