How to configure virtual memory

original title: can I have a virtual memory support on my LE1600 motion tablet that has a recent clean install of Windows XP with all the driver updated day and MAX Ram installed and activated?

About virtual memory size

Control Panel > system > Advanced tab > Performance - Settings button > button change tab advanced - virtual memory box - > choices are

-Custom size

-System Managed Size (checked)

-No pagefile

It is said that size is 5120 MB

-minimal allowed 2 MB

-Recommended 2287 MB

-Run 1 525 MB

System just told me it's too small and it's not the it and if I want to find out more, look in help. But there is no help button. Only the button is OK

Please tell me if there is SOMETHING I can do. I'm really tired of this computer runs slowly in time and ignoring the mouse input. And I am sure that I have no malware problem. Perhaps he too little RAM for what is happening? I have the max ram installed and activated, which can be accessed at http://www.memoryx.net/mocolectapcm.html

Please could I have a few tips specific given by someone so me (a person of no pc specialist) can I try to fix this problem without spending money I don't have or sending it anywhere be it fixed because I can not afford to do so, but I need to work a lot faster. It has always been a slow Tablet but now it is sometimes ridiculous. Sometimes it's 'OK', but it is not ALWAYS admirable.

Windows works the way it is supposed to work.  How much memory is being used by the system and applications running exceeds the sum of physical memory (RAM) and the file for the current page, Windows automatically increases the size of the page file (unless your hard drive is close to full).  The message you see Windows reacts to a heavy load on your system - it is not the result to set the filename of the page.

When the message says: "Look in the help", you should do it.  Click Start > Help and Support, and then type
virtual memory
in the search box.  Look for the section titled "Managing your computer's performance."

A good explanation of how Windows XP deals with 'virtual memory' starts here--> http://www.theeldergeek.com/paging_file.htm in particular, you should read the section on 'Sizing page file'

If your system is slow, it is because it is overloaded or with applications that you run intentionally malicious (you do not give the basis of your belief that you are sure that you don't have a malware problem).  Take a look at the processes listed in the Task Manager.  Do you know what they all are?  Do you really need for each of them to run?  Those who take the biggest percentage of cycles CPU?  Don't bother looking at the 'memory' column - which will really help you in determining which slows things.

If your system is like most, you'll probably multiple instances of svchost.exe running.  It's normal.  You can use Process Explorer to see what svchost is doing (details here http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/list-services-running-under-svchost.exe-process/) but you can try this first easy way:

Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
In the black command prompt window, type the following line and press enter

Tasklist/SVC /fi "imagename eq svchost.exe".

[This is an 'eye' tiny 'eff' after the slash - abbreviation for filter]

You will get a list like this:

Image name PID Services
========================= ====== =============================================
Svchost.exe 1148 DcomLaunch, TermService
Svchost.exe 1248 RpcSs
Svchost.exe 1340 AudioSrv, BITS, browser, CryptSvc, Dhcp,

    "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.

    Hello, I have increased the paging files such minimum and maximum values suggested by various sources of help and my computer seems to be running a little faster, but negligible so.

    Hi, I sympathise with your situation, but my answer may not be what you want here, even though I think you'll find credible and useful information (I have a degree in computer service technology (end of the 1980s, but I do not work in this area).)

    In the computing environment today with all web 2.0 and 3.0, sites which consist usually of a large number of graphics and flash type software, you must have much more memory...
    For simplicity, there are memories of basically two types that apply to your situation, and it is the RAM (to run your software as applications etc., then the memory of your hard drive (to do most of the work...)
    The computer, I am writing about this time is about five to seven years of age. He had 500MB of RAM when I bought it and 80 GB of hard drive memory. Then about two years ago I started to have virtual memory issues so I bought a stick of 1 GB of ram and installed what brought my RAM to 1.5 GB of ram and it took care of the issue of virtual memory. (I use a Dell Dimension 2400). I also bought a terabyte external drive to organize the future all downloads and transferred from the stuff that was on my computer on the external drive to free up some memory hard drive of my computer.
    Here are some points to remember and a recommendation or two. If you can, buy you a bar of RAM and install it... (instructions should come with the RAM on how to install it and you can also search the creator of computer Web site for assistance). It's a fairly simple process which consist essentially of find a connector available on your motherboard near where your already installed ram is located and pop in the newly purchased RAM stick. You should be able to get at least another stick of ram of 256 MB and this should help.
    You also have another problem, however, you indicate that you have seulement.6 GB memory hard drive of 20 GB. From my experience, when you use beyond the mark to halfway to the memory of your drive hard your computer can start to slow you down to the bottom of issues.
    20 GB hard drive is not really much memory in standard today for the internet. If I was buying a computer today, I would get at least a terabyte of disk hard memory (and at the very least, the computer should have at least 500 GB memory hard drive). You could probably make it thereby half, but I mainly throw these numbers out there so you can get some perspective on how just 20 GB is not get it for the internet today, especially if you use your laptop or desktop (20 GB might be great for palm pilot but even these computer really little, I forgot the name off the coast of the hand have more than 20 GB...)

    P.S. I just noticed you said you within your capabilities of ram in your computer... If you can not increase ram, then you should try to increase virtual memory... It is recommended that you increase the virtual memory by 1.5 times greater than the normal setting. Below is a step by step method, retrieved from http://www.delete-computer-history.com/increase-virtual-memory.html

    How to increase virtual memory?

    In Windows XP

    1. on start and then click Control Panel.
    2. click on performance and Maintenanceand then click System.
    3. on the Advanced tab, under performance, click settings.
    4. under the Advanced tab, under virtual memory, click on change.

    -Try to use the command with the - sc config start = disabled afs command prompt.

    Apparently, this disables a component of audio driver (afs) (of little consequence) which is incompatible with the pagefile.

    The prompt as administrator and type or copy / paste - sc config start = disabled afs.

    Press enter, and then restart your computer. Try to set the filename of the Page again.

    [Note: If your command prompt is not already in Admin mode-]

    Type cmd.exe into the Start Menu search bar.  Right-click on CMD.exe in the drop-down list and select Properties.

  • My computer is low on virtual memory. How can I fix it?

    My computer is marked with virtual memory. What should I do?

    Where is Ben from database...

    If you mean that you see a message like this:

    Virtual memory minimum too low: your system is low on virtual memory.  Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file.

    This means that Windows XP is to let you know that he does his work.  The message is not an error message - this is an informational message.

    If XP thinks that the size of the swap file (usually c:\pagefile.sys) is too small to accommodate your day-to-day transactions, it will adjust the paging file to expand the pagefile and display this message as it does.  It is not necessarily a 'problem', but the message is boring.

    Sometimes, the message indicates someone was tampering with the XP of the paging file settings to try to solve another problem that usually has nothing to do with their paging file and resolve things inefficiently.

    This could mean that the settings have been adjusted for certain values that don't make sense for the configuration of the system.  Unless we know the system better, you can't just pick certain values out of the air and that your system behaves effectively.  You might not see the message again, but this does not mean that the settings are correct.

    This could mean that the settings have never been properly in the first place when you first install of XP and things must be properly configured.

    Sometimes, as your system configuration changes over time and other applications are running and get bigger, you may add additional RAM to your system to accommodate things (or run the number of requests).

    At least that learn you more about managing memory than Windows XP, it is usually best to simply let XP manage the size of your virtual memory paging file.

    To see what your current, make settings right click post work, properties, advanced, performance settings, Advanced tab, virtual memory, and then click the button change.

    Make a note of the current settings in case you need to change their return more later.

    The best setting for the size of swap file is usually going to be:

    System managed size

    Right click my computer, properties, Advanced tab, Performance... Settings, Advanced tab, virtual memory... Change.

    Set the paging file size on:

    System managed size

    Don't forget to click on Set (to be defined), OK (several times) and then restart your computer.

    Windows XP will attempt to affect a swap file approximately 1.5 times the total amount of RAM installed on your system.  To manage the size of paging file Windows XP is enough for most configurations.

    If your system is not set to the size of the managed system, you must determine how it changed and why (usually a bad reason), make a note of the current settings to change them back later if necessary, and then change the setting to the size of the managed system, click on the Set button and then click on apply to apply the changes (you will be asked to restart).

    "Because someone told me to" is not a good reason to start making adjustments to the size of pagefile.  Setting just above to enlarge it by an arbitrary value can ease the symptoms of the problem and stop message, but may not result in the best configuration for your system.

    If you want your system to operate as efficiently as possible, you must understand what is happening and fix it properly and not only begin to try things or make some arbitrary adjustments.

    The size of the pagefile can really need adjustment, but you should at least try to know what you're doing and why you need to do.  It is unlikely that anyone can tell you how to adjust your settings properly without more information.

    If you don't know what the best settings are or if you are not sure what your settings should be, and we can see what is your situation:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click on OK and when the system info summary appears, click on Edition, select all, copy, and then paste the results here.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and what appears to be personal information for you, simply delete the personal information of the pasted information.

    This minimize back Q & A and eliminate the guesswork and assumptions.

  • Computer configuration virtual for SRM - files from memory Swap file/Virtual - best practice replication?

    Hello, I am very new to the model DR VMWare and have a few persistent questinos.

    What is the recommended best practice re: virtual computers invited windows and virtual memory files.  I think it would be unnecessary to replicate these changing data on the DR site.  I have several virtual machines with 6-8gig memory and I'm just wondering how can I isolate the ESX memory swap files and virtual memory in Windows feedback, so they get not replicated on the Dr site as often as changing os/data.  If it's even necessary to replicate.

    We use vspere vcenter 4.1 related modes, RS 4.1 the two on-site Cellera NX4 ReplicatorV2.

    I wonder if I can install the files of pages to be in a condition NOT replicated file system or a file system which is the only value replicates every 24 hours, or once a week.

    My reasoning here is.  Once the file is there, the operating system really cares about the changes in this file and dumps windows virtual memory on a restart, as well as the .vswp file.

    what I mean is built on a virtual disk full and placing the windows file on this virtual disk to Exchange.  This virtual disk could exist in a data store hosted on a celerra file system that does not get repeated as frequently as data/OS file systems.

    or am I completely off base here.

    I think that if you tried to reproduce these files and maintain a sync time minute 10, you would need a ton of bandwidth.

    any suggestions or recommendations or even pointers to Articles/items worth points = D.

    Thanks for your time.

    Given that the configuration is made at the level of the cluster and has no impact on the SRM, replication is not a factor.  Don't forget, not to replicate the LUNS with the swap, just files have a LUN configuration on the side of recovery as well and have this defined cluster Exchange files.  Also, on the virtual machine critical we define reservations memory so the pagefile is not a factor at all.

    Kind regards...
