to change virtual memory. right click my
computer,Properties,Advanced,in performance click
settings,Advanced,in virtual memory click change.highlite
custom size and type in a number (the minimum should be
1.5 times the size of your ram. e.g 128Mb ram = 192mb.)

Virtual memory is what your computer uses when it runs
out of ram (random access memory) It simulates ram on
your hard disk drive giving you more than you have.
If possible buy some more ram.
512 Mb RAM seems to be the best amount of ram for
graphics intensive games.

Hope this helps.....
