Computer suddenly very slow. Warning message: "out of virtual memory. What now?
Family using Windows XP Edition on Dell Dimension desktop.
What is the processor and RAM how much your computer have? Make a right-click on the icon my computer on your desktop and select properties for this information.
Try Ctrl + Alt + Delete, select Task Manager, and then click the performance tab. Under Commit Charge, which is the Total, limit, and the pic?
I'd be interested to see a report of Disk Defragmenter. Open Disk Defragmenter and click analysis. Select view report, and then click Save as and save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents folder. Open the file, and place the cursor anywhere in the file, select Edition, select all to select all the text and copy and paste into the body of your message. To do this, before you run Disk Defragmenter because it is more informative.
Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter.
Using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before the error occurred initially do not use this option.
If more than one person uses the computer and they have their own user log you need to run Disk Cleanup in each user profile that you want to delete all the unwanted files.
A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.
cCleaner comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

I get the message "out of virtual memory"... In order to buy more memory, can I contact Dell for this (there is a Dell computer)?
"Out of virtual memory" has nothing to do with the amount of physical RAM you have installed. These errors are caused by incompatible programs, too little free capacity available on the hard drive, correctly configured virtual memory (you set it so Windows automatically manages) or sometimes even by a severely fragmented hard disk partition.
Virtual memory in Windows Xp too low WARNING

But, if you decide you want to increase your RAM anyway, memory Crucial (www.crucial.com) website has a database to help find the right RAM for your specific brand and model computer or the motherboard. (By the way, Crucial is the only company I have ever buy RAM.) I've never been disappointed.) And it will be significantly cheaper than buying at Dell.

Hello, Cyrille,.
This could be caused due to viruses or malware on the computer.
Follow the following troubleshooting methods:
Method 1:
Download Microsoft Safety Scanner, scan your computer for viruses and malware and then check its operation.
You can download Microsoft Safety Scanner from the link "scan to Microsoft Security.
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. All data that are infected must be cleaned only by deleting all of the data, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
Method 2:
Run System File Check to fix the corrupted system files and then check how it works.
See the link "How to use the file system tool Checker to troubleshoot system missing or damaged files on Windows Vista or Windows 7" to run the System File Check.
Note: It can ask the Windows DVD difficulty and allowing SFC to do more than minor repairs. Could some of the files saved on your computer are deleted when fixing corrupted files.
I hope this helps you solve the problem. If the problem persists or if you have other problems with Windows, please post in the Microsoft Community. We would be happy to help you.

message is low virtual memory. Computer is very slow. HELP, please.
message says lack of virtual memory.
Computer is very slow
Hi NorrisCecil,
· Since when are you facing this problem?
· You did it all changes before the show?
If you receive warnings that virtual memory is low, you need to increase the minimum size of your pagefile. Windows sets the initial minimum size of the paging file to the RAM memory (RAM) installed on your computer plus 300 megabytes (MB) and maximum size of 3 times the amount of RAM installed on your computer.
If you see warnings at these recommended levels, and then increase the minimum and maximum sizes.
a. click Start, right click my computerand then click Properties.
b. in the System Properties dialog box, click the Advanced tab.
(c) in the results pane, click settings.
d. in the Performance Options dialog box, click the Advanced tab.
e. in the virtual memory section, click change.
f. change the value of initial size and maximum size to a higher value value, click the value, and then click OK.
g. click OK to close the Performance Options dialog box and then click OK to close the System Properties dialog box.

The warning of error IO error can be caused by a defective hardware:
Windows Windows (5352): an application to write to the file "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\Windows.edb" at offset 70025216 (0x00000000042c8000) to 32768 bytes (0 x 00008000) succeeded, but took an abnormally long time (91 seconds) is served by the operating system.

This problem is probably due to a defective hardware
I would check with the manufacturer of your computer to see if there is diagnostic tests that can be run on your hardware.
I also see that Steam.exe is not release handles to your user profile, then I would say you uninstall Steam and reinstall. Event id 1530 is just stating they were unloading the application, steam.exe. This type of errors can cause your user profile is damaged.
Let us know if that helps.

Suddenly very slow - being report attached - it's just the ram?
Hi all
my macbook suddenly turns very slowly, he has been allowed recently after some graphics clamping because it is so old!

If it's just the ram, (I doubt it, but maybe wrong!) can someone help me with my maximum?
I think that his officially 4 (2 x 2), but remember reading that a 4 + 2 can work?

Download of El Capitan post - my computer is very slow. Help.
I have a Mac Mini mid 2011

Recently, I downloaded El Capitan...
Now my computer is very slow - trudging-
Have seen several Beach - unprecedented balls - in my life.
Have been read the tips of Apple Support Mess - you are looking for a simple solution.
I have baby steps and delete cookies... organized files and photos...
Nothing helps.
When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is particularly bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Run the Console application in one of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).
☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages
in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select
List of newspapers seen ▹ display
in the menu at the top of the screen bar.
Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Highlight date back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered since then until the end of the episode, or until they begin to repeat, whichever comes first.
Copy messages to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.
The journal contains a large amount of information, almost all this is useless to solve any particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.
Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.
Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
When you post the journal excerpt, an error message may appear on the web page: "you include content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.
If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.

Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.
This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:
This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:
-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.htmlFor drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

Original title: slow and jerky
My computer is very slow to download programs, especially at the start. I tried to reduce the programs start, but in vain. Also when I try to watch a video clip, it takes forever to load, and then when he does, she plays in 2-3 seconds intervals. Help
Hi LouisBode,
1 Windows operating system you are using?
2 did you a recent software or hardware changes to the system?
3. What is the brand and model of the computer?
4. what program you use to play the videos?
5. this happens with all the videos that you try to play?
Method 1:
If you are using Windows 7, you can run the troubleshooter of performance and check if it helps.
Open the troubleshooter of Performance
If you use Windows Vista, then try to run the Fixit from the link:
Difficulty of Windows system performance slow computer problems
Method 2:
You can read the article and try the steps to solve the problem:
How to resolve performance issues during startup in Windows Vista
Note: This article also applies to Windows 7.
Method 3:
You can also refer to the computer or the device manufacturer's Web site and install the latest version of the drivers for graphics cards.

installed the new windows Friday and since my computer is very slow and not connecting to the internet correctly... anyone else having these issues?
System Restore to go back before the show.
I suggest you to install the updates one by one and reboot the computer after installing each update to verify that update is causing the problem.
Also note the updates that you install on the computer.
Once you come to know what update is causing the problem, let us know.
Do not install any driver updates offered by Windows Update. Find them in the manufacturer's website instead.
Try a convenience store
Windows includes two programs of troubleshooting that you can use to automatically fix some common problems with performance on your computer or to the maintenance of your system.
Open the Performance troubleshooting utility by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel.
In the search box, type Troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting.
Under system and security, click check for performance issues.
Open the of System Maintenance Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel.
In the search box, type Troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting.
Under system and security, click run maintenance tasks.

My computer is very slow. A friend said that I can speed up restore factory settings. How can I do this?
5 ways to speed up your computer
http://www.Microsoft.com/atwork/maintenance/speed.aspxThis article explains how to use the tools available in Windows 7, Vista and XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) to more effectively maintain your computer and protect your privacy when you're online.
Unexplained computer behavior may be caused by a third-party software
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/827315How to restore your computer settings certainly depend on what brand of computer you use. You must contact the manufacturer or your computer's manual should give you guidance on how to use your disks restore provided with your computer or the hidden partition.
Please note that means restoring the computer to the factory settings, restore the computer to the State that you have first obtained it in. You would lose your programs that you have installed, your data, etc etc. It would be like a new installation.
Consider other options first.
