Just want to make sure I set it correctly. It's telling me my intial size is 372 and max 744. It says my recommended size is 1905 mb, so do I change my initial size to 1905mb and max to 3810mb? </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/fixing-virtual-memory-low#post-36332 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 15:15:01 +0000 Budohorseman 36332@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Welcome to the forums...</p> <p>Start...Settings...Control Panel...System...Advanced tab. In Performance hit the Setting button, then go to the Advanced tab. In the Virtual Memory area push the Change button. There you will have options. You can choose System Managed Size or Custom size. If you go with custom, I recommend that you use your current RAM amount as the initial size and twice your RAM amount as the Maximum size, you can always adjust it later if you need more. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/fixing-virtual-memory-low#post-36329 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 14:56:19 +0000 suitlady 36329@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Even though everyone thinks I'm a computer expert, I'm not. I have windows xp home edition and I kept getting a message virtual memory low. I tried deleting what I didn't need from my hard drive, but that didn't help. I had 256mg of memory, so I purchased and installed 1gb of memory in the slot my 256mg was in and moved that to the second slot as was suggested at the computer store. It still is coming up virtual memory low. What do I do now? </p>
