priority for the program continues to change running

Why would a program a priority continue to change while it is running?

I set the priority of the program in the 'normal' Task Manager, but it will change to 'low '. I have observed this failover so that the Task Manager is open and running the program.

    How to set 4 MB of virtual memory in windows xp? A software says I need 4 MB of VM set aside for the program to run.

    Hi KennethBrasel,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community where you can find all the answers related to windows.

    According to the description provided, looks that you receive a virtual memory message when installing a program on Windows XP computer.

    By default, the virtual memory paging file that is created during installation is 1.5 times the physical RAM on your computer. Therefore, a computer that has 1 GB of RAM installed will have 1.5 GB of virtual memory.

    You can manually change the size of the swap file to make it larger or smaller. You can also optimize virtual memory use by dividing the space of files between multiple drives and by removing the disks slow or very open space.

    He would be grateful if you can answer this question in order to help you further.

    1. What is the size of your RAM memory?
    2 are. what program you referring?

    I suggest you try the following steps to change the virtual memory:

    a. Click Start, right click my computer and 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 on change.

    f. change the initial size value and the value of maximum size to a higher value, click on set 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.

    Note: With virtual memory, the computer can use the hard drive as memory (RAM) space. The computer uses virtual memory to increase the ordinary RAM that is installed on the computer. If you reduce the size of the pagefile, some the program may not start correctly or may not start at all. This problem may occur even if the computer has plenty of RAM.

    If you need Windows guru, do not hesitate to post your questions and we will be happy to help you.
