Taz Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 On Win XP, to check your virtual memory you can right click on my computer (its in your start menu) and then select properties. If you have problems with this you can also go into your control pannel and select system (you may have to change to classic mode). There you will see along the top some tabs. One of the tabs is advanced. Click on that. There click on performance. In there you want your advanced tab and at the bottom you will see your virtual memory. Click on change to change it. By default windows will do this and you really should let windows do it unless you know what you are doing. If you need though, you can change it through here. Many prolems out there however that cause you to get virtual memory errors are more due to viruses, so be sure you have an updated virus program on your computer. Other causes could be due to hardware. If you change your virtual memory, it won't hurt your computer. You can always change it back so thats always an easy option. Just thought I would point you at other possible causes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
