Usually running out of virtual memory means that you are running too many applications at the same time for your system or one of them is attempting to use too much memory.

Increasing virtual memory is one way of compensating for lack of RAM. However, it's optimum should be set at 1.5 times the amount of RAM on your computer. Virtual memory can be increased, but it comes with a risk if you increase it too much as it can eventually lead to hard drive damage.

To increase VM on Windows XP (should be in similar locations for other versions) look in Control Panel: System, Advanced, Performance Settings, Advanced, Virtual Memory.

You can see if your computer can handle more RAM at http://www.crucial.com/index.asp

It's important to note that everything takes RAM. Not only security products (such as active anti-spyware, anti-virus and firewall) eat up memory but your operating system, active browser windows, running applications (such as Word, Gaming, Messenger, Photoshop, etc) and malware all compete for system resources. The presence of Malware (viruses, spyware, etc) will particularly eat up your system resources so you may want to run your resident security products such as antispyware and antivirus applications to ensure that your system is clean.

gon onto control panel, then go onto classic view (if not already on it, and on wndows xp) then click system. click the advanced tab, then under performance, click settings. look within the pop up windows for something which has settings for virtual memory. if you find it, then clock on one of the hard drives (assuming partitioning) and then change the values at the text entry forms at the bottom half of the window. CLICK ON SET (important or else it will change back) and then RESTART (strongly advised)

Answer 3

First go to your Control Panel (Either from your Start Menu or from My Computer) and Click on System
Or
Right click on My Computer and select Properties

Select the Advance Tab and then press Settings under Preformance

Go to the Advance Tab on the new Window that popped up and choose Change under Virtual Memory

Here you can change your Virtual Memory, don't forgot to hit Set everytime you make a change and you'll need to restart before it takes effect
