just upgraded memory. Do i need to change Virtual Memory setting?

[Guest]

I just replace my existing memory with 1GB 2x512mb dual channel memory kit on
my HP system without any problem, check bios and it read the memory
correctly. Do i have to Change The Virtual Memory on the Performance Options
or can i just leave the way it is? the custome size is set to: Initial size
(MB): 768 Maximum size (MB): 1536.

Ok i added a 1GB on my system already and how come my PF usage is high
(around 300 or more when opening application)? is this normal for the PF
usage to get that high even when system has 1GB? does the PF usage suppose to
go down when adding more memory? check below for task manager information.

System Information:
Total Physical Memory 1,024.00 MB
Available physical Memory 634.25MB
Total Virtual Memory 2.00 GB
Available Virtual Memory 1.96 GB
Page file Space 1.65 GB


On TASKMANAGER

PF Usage (Page File Usage History)
267MB and sometimes it goes up to 302.

Physical Memory
Total 1047852
Available 669480
System Cache 267660

The correct setting for virtual memory is "System managed size".

So should I change it to System Managed size instead of the custom size
setting that HP has set automatically when they preloaded XP specially Now
that i have 1GB of memory. the HP computer came with originally came with 512
memory 2x512mb.
