Virtual memory problem

[David Park]

I get a out of virtual memory error message about half the
time I log onto my machine the other half of the time I
have to hit ctrl,alt,delete to log in. I have tried
reseting the virtual memory setting and have incressed my
memory to 512 meg. How can I fix this problem.
Thanks

Virtual memory is the swap file on your harddrive. If it's too full the swap
file has no room to grow. Nothing to do with your ram memory.
Clean off your harddrive and defrag it.
