Hi there,

Recently my computer has been showing me the message "Your system is too low on virtual memory..." and has been running quite strangely. Initially it would happen only when I was running a lot of programs at the same time but now it does it after startup. Can you please help? All your help in the past has been great, thank you. I have attached a HijackThis log below as well.

Thank you,

Operaboy

How much RAM do you have?

Do other people use or have access to your PC? It is possible that somone has fiddled with your virtual settings. Here is how you access those settings:

Start>My Computer (right click)>Properties>
Advanced>(Performance) Settings>Advanced>Virtual Memory

My initial default setting is 2046MB (installed RAM).
My maximum default setting is 4096MB (2 x RAM).




You may also need to provide the following info:

Your system is too low on virtual memory...

Go your 'Task Manager' (Ctrl+Alt+Delete KEYS):

Click the Processes TAB and list the number of processes, CPU usage, and commit charge. My numbers are 74, 9%, and 643m/3938m respectively.

Click the Performance TAB and list the Physical Memory - Available and System Cache.
