virtual memory low...?

Virtual Memory is space allocated on your hard drive for those times that your physical memory (RAM) is not enough.  \n\nTo increase the amount of virtual memory go to Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance > Settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory "Change" > Custom Size > adjust as needed. 1.5 times your physical RAM  is a good minimum and 3 times your physical memory in MB is good for your maximum.

i'd say it's your RAM. no other good solution except to buy a new one. but i do have a slightly improving solution (but far from as good as buy a new RAM). go to control panel, open the system, and click the performance tab.\n\ncheck the "adjust for the performance" and click "apply". DON'T click on the "ok" button first. click on "advanced" tab.\nin the "virtual memory" section, click change.\n\nincrease the seize of the paging. this won't be a problem if you have a lot of free space on your hard disk. this be will added up to your physical memory(RAM) as a virtual memory. it will not be as fast as physical RAM, but will at least increase your computer's speed. click "ok" and that's it...

I don't think 300 MB RAM is too little. I have 256 MB and evrything runs perfect. You should check for spyware, if there are no viruses.

The Microsoft recommended value for your virtual memory is 1.5 times the amount of memory you have installed in your computer.  So if you have 512 MB of ram, the suggested amount is 768 mb of ram.\n\nTo change your virtual memory, click on start, then click on control panel and double-click on the system icon. Click on advanced, click on the settings button under performance, click on the advanced tab, and then click on the change button under virtual memory.\n\nYou can read more here at Microsoft which includes information about the recommended settings:\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/sysdm_advancd_perform_change_vmpagefile.mspx?mfr=true

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.

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

Sometimes when you are low on virtual memory it can mean that you have too many programs running at the same time. The more programs you run at once the more virtual memory you use. There is a section of your hard drive that the computer uses as swap space/virtual memory while you run programs it stores some of the files there when your RAM starts getting filled up. \n\nYou can increase the size of your virtual memory by right clicking on My Computer and choosing properties, then choose the advanced tab and under performace choose the settings button. Once that opens there should be an advanced tab there too and there you can change the size of your virtual memory. I think the default is somewhere around 768mb you may want to up that to 1gig. \n\nAlso you can just watch what you are opening and don't open many programs at once. \n\nFound a few links for you to read up on virtual memory\n\nGood Luck~

You might have a lot of programs running and have little RAM memory left. Or maybe you might have a virus. I recomend that you check for viruses and for your memory.

Increase your ram asap.\n\nRunning winXP on a 64mb machine is silly.

Right click My Computer, Properties, Advanced, Performance Options, and it should be around there.  It might be different for different versions of Windows.  If you're running into your virtual memory all the time, though, you might want to think about upgrading the amount of physical memory in your computer.

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).

Restart your computer first! If that doesnt help, look for spyware, adware, viruses. If that doesnt help, check how many programs you have running at startup. if you dont need all of them runnung all of the time, remove them from your startup. if that doesnt work, make sure your hard drive isnt full. you should have 800mb minimum free space. if you dont, delete some old stuff you dont use anymore. if the hard drive is fine you could either buy more RAM (best idea), or increase your virtual memory. go into system properties, and the advanced tab. select performance settings...

do you have plenty of Ram?\nMost peopl don't change the motherboard on laptops so your processing speed tends to be limited.
