ME is the worst OS by a long shot, do a low level format and install XP.

delete some of your big programs. they might be taking up too much memory space.

Would help if we knew what OS you are running and how much RAM you have in your PC.\n\nTry cleaning your PC by deleting your temp files and your temporary internet files. Also empty your recycle bin.\n\nYou can do all the above in XP in one go from\nStart/programs/accessories/system tools/disk cleanup\n\nNext... go to Control Panel\nPerformance and maintenance/See basic information about your computer/System properties\nclick "settings" under "performance"\n\n"Memory usage" tick "System cache" instead of "programs"\n\n"Virtual Memory" change your page file to 500MB\n\nNow click OK and reboot your computer.\nOnce you did so, defragment your hard drive.\n\nGood luck.

You should visit to www.intel.com\nThere are so many documents talking about memory management.

Having low video memory puts the strain on the CPU and the computer's main memory.  However, you can try to improve the system resources by doing the following:\n\n1.  If you are offline turn off the anti-virus software.\n2.  Close any unnecessary software such as instant messengers residing in the system tray (usually by right-clicking the icons and selecting close or exit).\n3.  Empty the Recycle Bin\n4.  Defragment the hard drive on a monthly basis.\n5.  Before starting the game, right-click on the desktop and select refresh to refresh the memory.

Hi Jeane,\n  In my site listed below under Computer Talk there is a section that you may want to read called Optimizing your systems performance.  There you can learn to do all kinds of things to remove files/programs, and speed up your system. For a great picture viewer, that allows you to do some neat stuff and is free, search for a program called irfanview.  This will allow you to see pics in a slide show, create thumbnails of them, resize and rotate, and a whole lot more.  Hope this helps.

One option is to buy more memory. If that's not a possibility then you can change the amount of disk space your computer uses for virtual memory. Open the System properties task pane. Assuming you are using windows, right click on My Computer and click properties. Click on parameters under performance. Click  on Advanced then Modify and set the  initial size as about 1OOmb more than is shown. Increase the max size by 200mb. Click ok and see if the warning keeps coming up. Try not to open too many applications at once. Again the best advice is to buy and install more RAM.

You could use some tweaks that will free up memory and increase speed. A step by step guide on how to do this can be found here,\n\nhttp://www.tweakhound.com/xp/xptweaks/supertweaks1.htm

You can do what the above person said. You can also increase your page file. A page file is empty space on your hard drive that your system will use as extra memory. You can try to increase this by RIGHT-clicking on the My Computer icon, go to properties. Click on Advanced. Click Settings under performance.\nAgain, click the advanced Tab.\nNear the bottom, it should say Virtual memory. Click the Change button.\n\nMost systems will have system managed as default. If your "Currently Allocated" is near the recommended. I suggest entering a custom value. Depending on your system, 512-1024 is very sufficient. However...if your system starts to lag, you might want to play with it a lil. Hope this helps.

Your Virtual Memory setting may be too high. On your desktop; right click on top of your "My Computer" icon, then left click on the Properties Button. Click on the Advance Tab and select performance. Change the settings from your current settings and use only 1050mb for both the initial and maximum virtual memory size.\n\nAfterwards try to clean out your cookies, temp files, temp internet files; and repeat this again with the local settings on the c:&#92;; under your sign-in profile (c:&#92;document settings&#92; your profile&#92;local settings). Yes, last clean out some unneeded files, or applications.

Start --> control panel --> system --> advanced tab --> performance.  Change virtual memory.\n\nBut first I would do a disk clean up and defrag (start --> all programs --> accessories --> system tools --> disk cleanup and after completed, defrag.)

Probably not.\nRight click My Computer on your desktop. Select Properties. Select "Advanced". Select the "Settings" button that's under Performance. Select the Tab Advanced. Click on the Change button at the bottom of that Tab. Check to see if the Virtual Memory settings have been set by someone. If so, change it to "Let Windows control the size of the virtual memory" (something like that, I'm on a Dutch version of XP).

go to control panel, system, advanced, performance, advanced. down on the bottom you can change the amount of virtual memory

That's going to be pretty tough.  ME is still tied to DOS.  XP doesn't use it at all and that is part of the reason it's fast.  If you want to speed up your machine, install more memory or install XP.
