Satellite 1100: Excel keeps freezing - too low virtual memory

I have a satellite 1100. My Microsort Excel program keeps freezing (mainly when I print or you are trying to save) and then tells me to stop.

So, I also have a message icon telling me that I am low on virtual memory. Microsoft stop related to memory being low?

How can I increase the memory? Or do I just need a new laptop! Help, please.

Hello

Satellite 1100 is really an old classic, but he should be able to use common desktop applications such as Word or Excel with no problems
Virtual memory also known under the name a paging file is a file on your disk (default C:\pagefile.sys) than Windows applications and use more physical memory (RAM) according to your needs. The default and the recommended of pagefile.sys size is 1.5 times the amount of physical memory. Virtual memory is the amount of physical memory and the pagefile. So, if your computer has 512 MB of RAM, there is a page file 768 MB by default, for a total of 1.25 GB of physical + virtual memory.

So what to do in your case? Generally, the RAM upgrade should solve this problem. You can also try to increase the size of the pagefile.sys.
This can be done in system-> tab advanced properties-> Performance settings-> advanced-> virtual memory change tab.

After the change of virtual memory, you have to restart the laptop again.
If this will not help then an upgrade of RAM would be required or a new laptop effective ;)

    "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.

  • Satellite A500 Pro keeps freezing

    Help...

    I have a Satellite A500. It keeps freezing.

    Sometimes it will boot when turned on, but then as soon as I select a program to open, it freezes.
    I can't do anything. I can't control alt delete to open the Task Manager. The only thing I can do is to turn off the power.
    So when I turn it back on, it asks me to start in safe mode, I say yes, but the same thing happens.

    Sometimes it starts and you can go in outlook and check a few emails and I think it works fine, then it stops and says not responding do not. Then I go to Explorer and the same thing happens.
    I have try the Task Manager, but it will not come to the top.

    So I have to stop again. It's very frustrating.
    I have installed Norton and nothing comes to say there's a virus problem.
    I have no error message, it stops just to work.

    Help, please!

    The same happens when you start in safe mode? Test it please. Play around a bit with a few options or applications.

    Since when did you notice this behavior?
    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say why this is happening. It will be interesting to know how your work laptop with factory so if possible to save all your data and install the new OS by using the original installation disc of recovery.

  • Satellite A100-225 keeps freezing and crashing with the new HARD drive

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite A100-225 with a 100 GB SATA Hitachi drive I int it that recently started showing bad sectors. Then I bought a Hitachi 320 GB SATA II drive to replace it. I tried the drive and it was recognized right away, so I didn't need to change the SATA speed. I ran the restore a disk installed newest. The problem I have is that the computer keeps freezing and crashing with the new drive. It takes a lot of time to load up when turned on and there is a noticeable to untermittant delay when you drag the cards around solo.

    I tried to run the Hitachi drive test and it comes back fine. I also tried to turn the SATA speed of the drive down from 300 to 150 via the firmware, and although I saw a slight improvement, it is still not right.

    I talked to Hitachi and they say that he could not be 100% compatible, so the problems. Someone at - it else sucessfully set up a replacement for this notebook drive and if so what make and model. Has anyone else had simular problems?

    Thank you

    Years ago, I've updated yet more former Satellite M70 with SATA HDD (270 GB if I m remembering well) and everything was fine.
    In my view upgrade with SATA HDD normal shouldn't be a problem. Do not SATA II because it will not work faster.

    I can't say for sure, but there must be a compatibility problem.

    Let's see if someone else had better luck with the upgrade of the disk on the Satellite A100.

    Have you checked this forum with advanced search option? Maybe you can find some old NET on upgrade the HDD on A100.

  • Satellite L855 - trackpad keeps freezing on Windows 8

    Double boots L855 - 11 p, with clean installed Windows 7 and 8, the two drivers up to date. Windows 7 works perfectly but the trackpad keeps freezing on Windows 8.

    When you use the trackpad, that the cursor suddenly crashes to the screen. I have to take my finger on the pad and put it back on until the cursor starts to move. It does not seem be any model especially when it happens, but it's very common, two or three times per minute.

    Windows reports the driver under the version 16.2.10.15 of the 16.08.2012; the Toshiba poster site that this driver as being updated on 28/11/12.

    All advice appreciated.

    I suppose that this isn't a problem of the touchpad driver.
    I think that the problem is related to the touchpad settings.

  • My PC is always low virtual memory. Why does.

    Even when my PC does not all open programs, I still have a warning box will appear to tell me that windows is low on virtual memory.

    I run XP home edition 2004.

    I recently xferred my photo + music files to an external hard drive, but I still tell me that memory is low!

    What is the cause + I can do anything to put this right?

    Explorer is too slow and often egg or begins to force me to use the Task Manager to close the program does not. Is this related to this memory problem?

    Two points:

    1. What are you describe is a function of two or three of the following:
    (a) who is not enough of physical memory (also called RAM)
    (b) too many programs and processes running (perhaps due to a malware infection)
    (c) incorrect virtual memory configuration
    2. you're confused memory and hard disk space when you say "I recently xferred my photo + music files to a drive external hard but I said always not the memory is low!
    This page explains the difference:
    Getting back to your question, you must help us! You need to tell us what you have. Are the following:
    -brand, model and model number of your PC
    -SP level
    -amount of RAM
    If you are unsure, do a click right my computer and select Properties. Only necessary information should already be showing under the general tab to keep this window open for more later...
    -virtual memory setting
    To do this, click on the Advanced System Properties window already open tab. Under performance, click settings. In the new performance Options window, click the Advanced tab. Under virtual memory, this figure is listed as the "Total paging file size for all drives"? Then click the button change.
    Assuming that C: drive is highlighted, I'll bet you dollars to doughnuts that a custom size is activated (in general, which is not a good idea!). Out of curiosity, what are these two values?
    To make life a LOT easier, click on "System managed size". Then click on the Set button. Then click on the OK button. Then click on other buttons OK. Reset.
    If you click on the size of the managed system, you must stop to get these annoying messages. (But your work isn't always more. You need see if you have enough RAM, or if there is something on your PC, hogging memory).
    -size of the drive C: and the amount of free space available
    To do this, double-click my computer. Click view on the menu bar, and then select Details. Under "Drives", what are the values of the size total and free space on C:?
    -Tell us what antivirus or suite program you use. Is up to date?
    -tell us if you ALL post-SP3 (assuming you have SP3!) security updates installed or not
    -We say users of memory of the top 10 in the Task Manager
    To do this, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete, click on the processes tab click on use of Mem. Click again. (This will give you the biggest users of memory above.) What are the processes of ten albums? And what are the values according to the uses of Mem for each of them?
    Manager tasks of maintaining open, click on the performance tab. Then the three values under Commit Charge (k) Note: in the lower left corner: Total, limit and peak.

    The Total number represents the amount of memory you are using right now. The vertex figure represents the maximum amount of memory you made since the last boot. If these figures are lower than the value of the amount of physical memory (K), then you probably have lots of RAM. (But I doubt that you do!) Tell us about these figures.

    As soon as we have the above information, we will have an idea what your situation is.

    Since it's always a good idea to rule out malware (as malware uses a lot of memory, among other things!), you must do the following:

    First, run the portable Analyzer of SAS:

    http://www.SUPERAntiSpyware.com/portablescanner.html

    Then, run the version FREE of MBAM (not the version pro or trial!):

  • Satellite Pro L40 - Vista display lack of virtual memory message

    Hello

    new here on this forum, hope someone can help,

    I have a series of satellite Pro L40, I'm trying to free up memory space I get the prompt "virtual memory is low", Vista (c) shows 3.28 GB free of 37.2 GB & data (E :) shows 100% free, I just replced both modules of memory with x 2 1 GB 200 pin Sodimm memory upgrades but Vista is still to display only 3.28 GB of free space) , any idea?

    Your very confused!, Mike.

    Hi Mike,.

    I think you mixed a lot of The RAM (Random Access Memory) has * nothing * to do with disk space von Vista (c).
    Vista with low disk space partition is stored on the HARD disk and the second partition (E :) as well.
    RAM and HARD drive are completely different. All your data/files are stored on the HARD drive because the RAM is no place to save the data.

    In any case, I think you need to move some files from partition C: to E: partition like photos, music, etc. Then, you can get rid of this error message.
