• Total physical memory and the total virtual memory

  Hello

  When I checked the repressive information of my laptop computer on which Windows XP SP3 installed, I discovered that RAM is of approximately:

  Total physical memory: 2.048 MB
  Available physical memory: 1.32 GB

  Total virtual memory: 2 GB
  Total available memory: 1.96 GB

  As this screen shot in Arabic shows:

  

  I don't really know what mean these four memories.

  It would be very much appreciated

  Physical memory is actual RAM that is installed inyour PC is fast enough with respect to access to the data

  Virtual memory is not physical in terms that you can't touch it or remomve it. Vitutal is a section of hard disk space unused which is used on-site for faster physical memory that your PC does not have memory.

  Because the hard drive is slower interms of access data to physical memory, your PC will see improved performance by adding or replacing existing physical memory with amounts more or more (512 MB or more)

  Virtual memory allows your computer to always run, but at a slower speed when you run applications that have used all of the physical memory. Remember, even before starting a program already running the operating system and other services which each allocate a block of physical memory for themselves. You can see exactly how much is used by pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL and display of the process tab and the performance tab.

  You can easily determine what your need to add to your PC memory by visiting a site like Crucial.com which allows you to scan your pc for the type of memory used.

• 2 different values of total physical memory HPremium Vista64

  Hello

  Problem solved. TomsHardware forum - Vista 64 8 GB DDR2 only 3 GB display.
  I got into MSCONFIG in start - MAX RAM 3 GB controlled Advanced Settings tab.
  No idea why, but he was there and I wasn't aware of these parameters there.
  After reboot and uncheck option MAX RAM OS shows 6 GB even in task managers.

  I have problem with 2 different values reported total available physical memory.

  I run Vista64 Home Premium SP2 on card mother Gigabyte GA-G33M-S2L.
  MB has 4 memory slots 0-3 for the chips PC6400 DIMM, MB spec said on the stand upwards to 8 GB of system memory.
  According to HWinfo32 these niches have memory banks 0/1 2/3 4/5 and 6/7.

  I added 2 * 2 GB Kingston chips pairs in slots 0 and 2 (same color slot).
  and put the original 2 GB Apacer single-chip for slot 1 (color different connector)
  (AFAIK DIMM should be matched 0 + 2, 1 + 3, correct me if I'm wrong...)

  BIOS said running in the (expected) Flex mode, when a part of the memory is double-channneled, and part is not.
  There is no setting in BIOS potential question of 4 GB, or suspicious parameters posibly do.
  (You can consult the manual of MB linl below)
  I have the seller last MB drivers installed
  Claims of the seller MB supports 8 GB memory system.
  MB on Microsoft pages listed among the Wista32/64 bit certified MBs.

  Now:
  BIOS page pasic said 6144 MB of installed memory.
  The BIOS POST test reports 6 GB of memory.

• Hi I have an acer aspire laptop running on vista factory installed which I want to totally remove to install xp can anyone help please?

  I tried to run it as administrator to force the installation but not worked any help would be welcome

  You must first visit the Acer site, specific to your model, and see if the Windows XP drivers are available, if they don't even try.

  If the drivers are available, you will need to boot from the Windows XP retail cd, delete all partitions, create a new partition, and then continue with the installation. You will lose everything on the disc

• freeing physical memory.

  I have 512 MB of total physical memory and my sys info I have 181 MB of physical memory left available shows.  I have 2 GB of virtual memory total with 1.96 GB available left. page file space 1.20 GB is.

  My computer seems really slow and I did all the viruses with microsoft and webroot and its own projections. I have cleaned and defragmented disk and seems to cling to certain times and especially if you click on frown again on a page "hung up". It will giveyou the hourglass effect and will not respond. Any other suggestions to make? I have XP Edition family sp3 and all updates for windows explorer 8. Thank you!

  Looks like you have lots of RAM. But if you want to double-check, skip to #4 below.

  Brand and model of the PC? XP Home or Pro, or MCE? What are you doing SP level to? Have you installed XP security update patches? What security programs (antivirus, other antimalware, firewall, etc.) are you running? Are they up-to-date?

  Here are the usual causes of slow:

  1. malware (malware). You need to rule out first! This page has excellent information:

  http://Web.archive.org/Web/20080610163247/http :// www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

  2. some programs aimed at combating malware (for example, Norton and McAfee). Ironically, they can slow things down because they use simply much too many resources. Sometimes they cause conflicts with other programs. And their default mode is to scan your entire hard drive whenever you start. Fortunately, there are other programs of anti-malware software available that use much less resources (p. ex., NOD32, Avast and Avira).

  3. too much of certain types of programs still running in background - with or without your consent. (Then again, a lot of programs running in the background of the consequences trivial.)

  To determine each program and process, you are running, use the task (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) Manager and click the processes tab. You should be able to sort by CPU usage or memory usage for a good ideas that are resource/memory hogs. You must write the names of all the processes for future detective work (or take a snapshot and print it).

  Use these sites to determine what these programs are, and learn how configure them to not always run when starting:

  http://www.PACS-portal.co.UK/startup_content.php#THE_PROGRAMS
  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/
  http://www.AnswersThatWork.com/Tasklist_pages/Tasklist.htm

  Sometimes, it is recommended to use msconfig to configure programs to run at startup. A better, more thorough program is Autoruns:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

  But before that, you must use the settings preference of the program in question. Otherwise, for some programs, they will return to the list of startup anyway!

  If you do not want to use msconfig, it can be accessed in this way:

  Start | Run | Type "msconfig" (without the quotes). Enter (or OK)

  4. not enough RAM, causing the PC too rely on the pagefile. A quick way to determine if what is happening is to open (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) Task Manager, and then click 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. In case you want to study it more, you can run the Page queue Monitor for Windows XP:

  http://www.dougknox.com/XP/utils/xp_pagefilemon.htm

  5. you can also verify that the access mode of your hard drive has not changed from DMA to PIO:

• Pavilion HPE-110nl lost the physical memory

  Product name: HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 110nl desktop PC

  OS: Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 SP1

  After an electricity break my PC had only 2008 total physical memory MB instead of the normal MB 6104. The memory is there (SIW Gabriel Topala, gives information, 3 Slots with 2048 MB memory-property), but is not displayed in the system - physical memory summary. Already before this summer, this problem existed without clear reason. He disappeared until the day when, after a sudden power outage cost in our village. Control procedure of memory Windows was OK, and also the recovery of the system did not have any results.

  Note that after the blackout, there was an announcement, which I took the default choice of the two options to continue with the PC to connect. I don't remember what was said in the announcement.

• Total memory of 4 GB newly installed does not appear in the Task Manager

  Total memory of 4 GB newly installed does not appear in the tab of the Task Manager performance. Only 3.3 GB appears. Is something wrong with the chopsticks of mem or mem from Vista 32 bit OS limit uses at this level. I have SP2.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929605

  "System memory shown in the system information dialog box in Windows Vista is less than expected if the 4 GB of RAM is installed.

  This behavior is the expected result of some hardware and software factors.

  Various devices in a typical computer require memory-mapped access. This is known as memory-mapped i/o (MMIO). For the MMIO space is available for 32-bit operating systems, the MMIO space must reside in the first 4 GB of address space.

  For example, if you have a video card that has 256 MB on-board memory, that memory must be mapped in the first 4 GB of address space. If 4 GB of system memory is already installed, the part of this address space must be reserved by the graphics memory mapping. Graphics memory mapping replaces part of the system memory. These conditions reduce the total amount of memory available to the OS System.

  The reduction in available system memory depends on the devices that are installed in the computer. However, to avoid potential driver compatibility issues, 32-bit versions of Windows Vista limit the total available memory to 3.12 GB. See the section 'More information' for more information on potential driver compatibility issues.

  If a computer has many features implemented, the available memory can be reduced to 3 GB or less. However, the maximum memory available in 32-bit versions of Windows Vista is typically 3.12 GB.

  See you soon.

• Problem with MSINFO32. EXE and Total/available vs Page file space virtual memory reported

  I am running Windows XP Professional SP3 with all installed updates, latest hardware drivers, etc.. It is a CLEAN installation on a material brand new, completed a week ago.
  The "/ PAE" switch is enabled in the boot.ini file.

  When I run MSINFO32. EXE, the summary of the system is the following:
  System model: System product name
  System type: X 86-based PC
  Processor: x 86 family 16 model 4 Stepping 3 Mhz-AuthenticAMD ~ 3515
  The version of the BIOS/Date: American Megatrends Inc. 1702, 22/12/2010
  SMBIOS Version: 2.5
  Windows directory: C:\WINDOWS
  System directory: C:\WINDOWS\system32
  Starting device: \Device\HarddiskVolume2
  Locale: United States
  Layer of HAL: Version = "5.1.2600.5512 (xpsp.080413 - 2111).
  Username: username MYUSERNAME01\My (redacted for privacy)
  Time zone: Pacific Daylight Time
  Total physical memory: 8 MB 192,00
  Available physical memory: 2.60 GB
  Total virtual memory: 2.00 GB
  Available virtual memory: 1.96 GB
  Page file space: 7.07 GB
  File: E:\pagefile.sys

  Right click on 'my computer' and selecting 'Properties' shows exact needs to be visible to a 32 bit OS... 3.24 GB of RAM. So, how MSINFO32. EXE is able to detect all of 8 GB is totally beyond me. But this isn't my problem.

  My BIG PROBLEM is the virtual memory. If I open the root of my drive E:\, it shows the swap file to size: 4 096 MB. And that's how it is in 'my computer' > 'Advanced' > 'Performance' > 'Advanced' > 'virtual memory' > 'change'.
  Custom size:
  -Initial size (MB): 4096
  -Maximum size (MB): 4096
  Total size of file for all readers:
  -Minimum authorized: 2 MB
  -Recommended: 4978 MB
  -Currently allocated: 4080 MB

  Why is-MSINFO32. EXE, statement my total virtual memory 2 GB and the size of pagefile 7.07 GB? Neither is correct! Can someone explain just what the heck happens here? My research on Google, many other people report the same total/available virtual memory amounts, with wildly different hardware configurations. I changed the size manually and rebooted several times, without result. I had the pagefile, sitting in a 5 GB partition, and then he moved on to another drive with plenty of space and assign "System managed". Divergence still existed.

  The material is as follows:
  [|] ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 BIOS v1702 [|] AMD PhenomII x 4 (970 Black Edition) [|] Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8 (x 2) mode modules together ~ 800 Mhz & calendar 8-8-8-24 [|] Integrated graphics card Radeon HD 4250 with 128 MB + 512 MB memory [|] ASUS VE248H 24 "1080 p HD LED monitor [|] Drives from Maxtor 6V250F0 (x 4) 250 GB SATAII 1.5 Gbps [|] LG BD - DL Optical Drive WH10LS30 [|] Creative Labs X - Fi Platinum Sound Card [|] Logitech LX 700 keyboard/mouse wireless [|]

  I changed the speed / "timing" on the RAM to run ~ 666 Mhz @ 9-9-9-24, and the problem persists. As far as I know, he is not actually detrimental to the system; that is, it does not regularly, crash or anything. But the fact that MSINFO32. EXE cannot obtain such a right basis is VERY disturbing for me. There is no state what operating system says it is, then what fundamental problem may arise at some point in the future? Or is already there, hidden and wait a moment when the system load is high until it rears its ugly head and denounces all?
  I wonder if I should completely eliminate virtual memory? Or at least reduce the pagefile to 2 GB or close? After all, I can't imagine many running programs as long as 3.24 GB (RAM available for the operating system) is not sufficient to contain all this. I guess only he pourrait happen, however, is why I'm reluctant to totally renounce virtual memory.

  Anyway. Responses of all appreciated. Gimme a solutionand I will give my first-born. Or at least the neighbors...
