I used the disk defragment and free of unused programs
Two months! This error message occurs most often on severely infected computers or on computers where the end-user has changed pagefile settings. Have you changed the virtual memory management settings?
Start with the basics and make sure that the computer is free of viruses/malware:
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_MalwareIf you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). Please be aware that not all shops are skilled at removing malware, and even if they are, your computer may be so infested that Windows will have to be properly installed. If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

questions about the virtual memory and CPU allocation
Hi, I have 2 questions that I hope will be answered in this forum.
First of all, I have a computer for video editing with 4 hard drives in raid0 2... also a separate hard drive to the system and programs.
16 GB of ram
My question relates to the allocation of virtual memory... I currently set at min - max, same... 1200 MB on each raid0 array and nothing on the c drive.
Is it safe and effective, or should I create another set up?
also
I have processor together for optimal performance for planning programs. I was wondering if the background services must wager together instead of programs.
Thanks in advance for any help
Sounds good to me. Distributed pagefile doesn't make much difference in a single dedicated pagefile and programs should take precedence over substantive services.

I get a lot of errors when I start the computer as kernal32.dll.and memory low andvirtual momery canyou help me
-----------------

Since the installation of fix KB973687, I had several SP2 and SP3 systems exhibit behavior that makes them unusable until after the first logon is completed, which can take up to 20 minutes. I've identified the patch (KB973687) and DLLs, that it will update the origin of the problem, but uninstalling the patch does NOT return to normal operation.
I need to understand how to upgrade these systems WindowsXP SP2 and SP3 to restore normal operation, reinstalling Windows, programs, and settings is an expensive solution.
The performance problem is caused by services.exe slowly consumes about 1.5 GB of virtual memory, and then slowly releasing. This seems to be triggered by the first logon after restart, this connection is very slow, the screen is blank for most of it, there might be failures of allocation memory during logon. Once complete this opening of session and memory usage returns to normal levels, recording and return to work normally as do other operations until the system is restarted.
Spent a lot of time working with SysInternals Process Explorer, trying to find what specific service might be involved, lightweight system for bare essential services with no luck.
KB973687 seems to offer only two files msxml3.dll and msxml6.dll. Uninstalling this patch, resettlement V3 and V6 of the XML parser fail to restore normal operation.
Not all systems seem to have place still restrict the differences. Systems that are appear to be the oldest, with Windows XP has been installed for at least a year, installed Microsoft Office and Adobe Acrobat.
Looking for these forums and the Internet, I believe that many have encountered this problem, but have not is it this level of analysis, seem most attribute it to a virus, I see several start explorer.exe manually, I didn't know all the alternatives before reinstalling Windows.
Found the solution, the following has been fixed in System Cleaner of Comodo 2.2.129172.4:
"For some strange reason, after changing some settings of the system with the CSC LastGood.tmp Directoy began to constantly be read from my hard drive. This would occur up to about 90 to 99% of my memory was used and then stopped, begin to free the memory, and the system began to slowly to function normally.
I used the process explore from sysinternals to help diagnose the problem with any process other than services.exe using memory.I used sysinterals filemonitor to see LastGood.tmp directory has been read repeatedly.
After you have uninstalled CSC the problem has been resolved. »Even with the effort to find the solution, it was better to reinstall. Hope this solution helps others.

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.

Win XP (Pro) - the correct virtual memory size
Hello
May I know what is the optimal size for the virtual memoray in MB when the Advance system setting?
The default size of the system to the optimal size is?
What happens when it is too beneath and above the optimum size?
I need my PC to get the best visual effect and fast and accurate performance.
Thank you

No one can tell you that, without more information on your system.
They can guess and suggest things like the committed Microsoft Support Engineer "experts":
'Increase the value of the initial and maximum size to a higher value.
Who has no sense at all, but it is advice from these committed Microsoft alleged Support Engineer "experts."
Increase by 10, 100, 1000, a meelion?

need to add virtual memory according to my computer, using XP, 32 bit, except 3 Pk
My computer has been running really slow despite usin a system cleaning program. I went through and deleted a large number of * I didn't need this use to be my desktop computer which was connected to a file server. Now I use it at home as a stand alone PC. I've done everything I can and it is now telling me that I have to add virtual memory or more RAM. I have not studied the cost of more memory RAM, but money is a problem for me at the moment. How can I add virtual memory at this time? I have 19GB of available storage memory, that's not the problem. Sincerely, Joyce
The amount of physical RAM you have (right click on my computer, then select properties)?
What applications are running when you receive the warning "low virtual memory"?
Check if Windows manages virtual memory (which should be) or if this parameter has been "twisted" to try to "tune up" your computer. Right click on desktop, select Properties, and click the Advanced tab. Click the settings button in the box of 'Performance '. Click the Advanced tab, and then click Edit in the box of 'virtual memory '. Make sure the system drive (generally c :)) is selected and then make sure that the option to "System managed size" button is selected. If the box is unchecked, let and click Set and OK your way out. If the managed system option button size is already selected, simply cancel your way.
As a general rule, it is best to let Windows manage virtual memory, but you can read the material here to get some to understand what is going on:
The article starts here: http://www.theeldergeek.com/paging_file.htm
But do not forget to read this page: http://www.theeldergeek.com/sizing_the_page_file.htmIf Windows manages virtual memory, and you have enough physical RAM, you should check your computer for malware. Download, install, update and run each of these two free scanners:

If anyone can help to guide me to overcome the lack of virtual memory. Thank you.
I've never seen this difficulty it work or do something, but you can of course try it (he says it of fixing, but makes no changes for me). I think this is another of these Fix sound that doesn't fix it.
I'm not sure that the idea to the other link "get your virtual memory" is a good idea either because it doesn't tell you how to find out how much you have memory, or how much it raise. Just bumping may be not a good idea.
Research in Manager tasks will tell you not how your currently running applications use unless you enable the column size virtual memory manager tasks, so that the idea will not a great party serve for you-at least that is how it works on XP system never I've never worked on virtual memory.
If you look in the event viewer after this message, you are likely to see is something like this:
Event type: Information
Event source: Application Popup
Event category: no
Event ID: 26
Description:
Application popup: Windows - virtual memory Minimum too low: your system is low on virtual memory.
Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file. During this process, memory
for some applications, applications may be refused.You already know that well.
I think it would be best to ask a few questions first, check a few things, see what you have now and then decide what to do:
Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system. Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.
Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.
Provide information on your system, the better you can:
What is your system brand and model?
What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?
Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..
If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?
This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.
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 are the best settings, or if you are not sure what should be your settings, follow these steps so that we can see what you have:
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.

Insufficient virtual memory. How can I fix this?

Knowing that information, you can decide what to do to solve the problem.Some antivirus and anti-malware applications are known to consume large amounts of virtual memory (like the Spybot Teatimer).Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..You can determine how the applications use virtual memory and those who use virtual memory using the Task Manager.To do this:Click with the right button on the taskbar, choose Task Manager and select the processes tab.Click View, select column, check the box that says: virtual memory size. Expand the height and the width of the Task Manager by dragging the edges to see if possible all the columns and the processes in a single window.Double click on a column heading in the Task Manager to sort this column. For example, sort tasks in the column size CPU or virtual memory manager.Here's an example of what looks like my poor task (including the column virtual memory information) Manager:On your system, what are the top 5 processes that use virtual memory?You can also make a screen shot of your task manager and we can provide some ideas and tips that don't involve try random things.Do, or do not. There is no test.
I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!
