[GRAFIK]

I currently own a sony vaio computer with 1 gig. I have been recently getting messeges saying my virtual memory is too low. and my computer is running really slow. Does anyone know how to get rid of some of my virtual memory or increase it?

It is saying my

Maximum size(MB): 1536


help please????????????

Hey GRAFIK, try the following:

Virtual Memory Settings
This setting alone could solve many problems. Normally Windows is setup to allow the virtual memory swap file to be resized dynamically as the system is running. While the swap file is resizing other programs can be delayed causing glitches or pops in the audio during playback. In order to avoid this situation it is best to set the minimum and maximum parameters in your swap file settings to the same values.
Setting your Virtual Memory Size.
1. On your start menu click on CONTROL PANEL.
2. Double click the SYSTEM icon then go to ADVANCED Tab.
3. Click the PERFORMANCE settings button.
4. Click on the ADVANCED Tab then VIRTUAL MEMORY Change button
5. Select Custom Size.
6. Set the MINIMUM and MAXIMUM values to the same value. The best setting depends on your hardware and the amount of memory you have installed but I suggest around twice the amount of your physical memory - so 2gigs (enter 2000). The most important thing is to make sure both values are the same.

I've done this on my system and I've never had a problem. Good luck.

yeah man it actually worked, i set them both to 765MB, i didnt know you had to set them equal, it was driving me crazy, i did that and reboted and it is working smoothly, thanks a lot J, helped me out a lot, thanks.....................

nevermind, it is fucking doing it again, damn, it is lagging and shit, anymore suggestions???????????

Try raisung it to 2000 for both settings. If that doesn't do it then it gotta be something else. Make sure you defrag your harddrive also. You might want to make sure you back up all your stuff just in case, you never know. Let's see if anybody else that had this problem jumps in here with a suggestion. Keep me posted.

Damn... I hope none of the stuff I sent caused it to do that. I doubt it since I have all that running on my machine too, with no problems. Did you get everything fixed proper?
