Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low Problem
Okay well I keep getting this popup thing and it says:
Windows - Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low
Your system is low on virtual memory. Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file. During this process, memory requests for some applications may be denied. For more information, see Help.
I looked at Help and it said all this weird computer language stuff. Now I don't really know a lot about computers but I believe I know enough.
Is there anyone who can tell me what this means or how I can fix this problem? Would buying a specific hardware for the computer make this problem better?
In WinXP, right click My Computer, and select Properties. Go to the Advanced tab, and under Performance, click Settings. At there, click the Advanced tab. There, you will find one option at the bottom to change your virtual memory. Select Change and increase it.
Either you have too many programs running at once, or you just don't have enough memory in your computer.. Right click on My Computer, and click on properties.. Then look near the bottom of the window that pops up, and see what it says.. something like ### MB RAM How much is there?

Just select 'custom' setting
then put 'minimum' at 250
then put 'maximum' at 500
click 'set' & 'OK' your way out
click start, then click on run, then type dxdiag, if a little screen comes up 1st click yes. This page shows you ur system specs, make sure that your system can run what ever program ur trying to run

This is not 100% true. I don't have too many programs running at once, I also have enough memory in my computer, but I still get the error message.
When I am using IE 6, I click on a certain link on a site, or open IE 6 and go to a certain site, the error message appears. It is even hard to start the task manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del.
I use Spybot and anti-virus software to scan for spyware and virus infection but didn't find any problem.
Any advice on what to change the memory minimun to?? My computers memory minimun was set at 376 MB, is this too low?? My computer also seems to be going alot slower than usual, is this connected with the virtual memory.
i am new to this site. my husband builds computers and I help program them so I am not your typical lady
I am getting the virtual memory problem and need some help.
My minimum size is 750
my maximum size is 1500
what could be the problem when there are NO programs running.
