Computer HELP!!!!!!!!!
I need some help, my computer keeps telling me in a pop-up that my computer is low on virtual memory. So I go in and try to increase it but it is maxed out @ 4096. How do I fix this? It will close programs that I have opened and stop my downloads.
HELP PLEASE!!!!

Re: Computer HELP!!!!!!!!!
Sounds like you have too many processes running.
Download an anti-spyware program - Microsoft has a free one. Virtual memory is different than RAM, it has more to do with system resources. I'll bet you are laden with spyware.

Re: Computer HELP!!!!!!!!!
Also, how much free hdd space do you have? If you're hdd doesn't have enough space for a decent sized pagefile, this may be getting you in to trouble as well.
