  To stop your CPU from constantly changing the paging file, set the initial and maximum size to the same value. For example, 500 and 500. The value must be at least 1.5 times more than your physical RAM. If your computer has 512 MB of RAM, increase the file of virtual memory paging to 1.5 * 512 = 768

• "Insufficient minimum virtual memory.

  I received a message 'not enough minimum virtual memory.

  My C drive 20315 MB of available space and the Initial value of 384-768 Max.

  My G drive 60116 MB of available space and nothing put on, should I put something on the G drive or just the C drive?

  Let Windows manage your swap file.

  To manually change the size of virtual memory, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start , click run , type sysdm.cpl in the Open box, and then press ENTER.
  2. Click the Advanced tab, and then under Performance click settings .
  3. Click the Advanced tab, and then under virtual memory , click change .
  4. Under [Drive] , click the drive that contains the swap file that you want to change. (This will be your C:\ drive.)
  5. Under for the selected drive paging file size , set this to allow Windows to manage the page file and then click define .
  6. Click OK to close the dialog box and apply the changes.

  After you change the size of the paging file, you may be prompted to restart Windows. If you are prompted to restart, the changes will not take effect until Windows is restarted.

  If this does not help OR your swap file is already managed by Windows, you have too many programs/processes that run in the background. They could be legitimate or malicious.

  1. start making sure that the computer is completely virus/malware-free:
  http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

  2. If the computer is clean - and only when you are sure that it is clean - manage your Startup:

  Start > run > msconfig [Enter]

  This will open the System Configuration utility. Look under the Startup tab and find the likely culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, apply and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but next time you do, you will get a dialog box saying that you have used the utility. Just check the box that says in effect, "don't mind to this subject again".

  Important - do not use the System Configuration utility to stop the process. Use rather Start > Run > services.msc [Enter] and stop all services unless you really, really know what you're doing.

  If you don't know what something is, Google his name to see details.

  If 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). If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop.

• I was told several times that my virtual memory is low.

  I get a Windows message that my virtual memory is low. Windows has increased my page file size but in a week or two, I get the same message. Used to install updates and some programs will not open correctly sometimes. Basically, my computer works pretty well, except for the problem of lack of virtual memory. How can I increase my virtual memory once and for all? There is plenty of room on my hard drive and I'm a little computer illiterate, because I didn't know that there was a difference between virtual memory and space on my hard drive. What I am doing wrong?

  Hello

  As services are corrupted, you can perform in-Place Upgrade (repair install) and check.
  The detailed procedure is suggested in the following link.

  
  How to perform an upgrade on the spot on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 & Windows Server 2008 R2

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2255099

  Warning: Before you perform an upgrade in-place, you must be prepared for the worst scenarios that led to your existing data on your computer being deleted. These data include data personal, settings, information about the hardware and software drivers. In case of a worst case scenario, you may have to reinstall all the programs. Make sure that you back up personal data to disks or other external storage devices before performing an upgrade on the spot.

  I hope this helps.

• Kernal_task with virtual memory, slow computer

  I have an iMac 21.5 inch end 2013 with 8 GB RAM on OS X 10.11.6. The computer is incredibly slow and hangs up during long periods of time (minutes). In addition, I noticed when you save to my Time Capsule (ethernet connection, wifi is turned off) it will just make a break to half way through and stay there (e.g., 789 MB 450MO) for 30-45 min. activity monitor shows kernal_task taking up huge amounts of time processor (5:02:09), son (118), slow down wake ups (2752), and when I select the process name it shows the size of real but 781,2 MB of memory the size of the virtual memory of 70,51 Go.

  I don't have any external monitors, hard drives (except the time capsule), etc. connected. Any ideas of what I can do?

  Thank you!

• 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 ;)

• 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.

• How to change the maximum virtual memory

  Hi, I use a laptop 1.8 GHz, 512 MB of tevra m2.
  normally used for office work and not for games,
  BitDefender Antivirus consumes a lot of memory, so be careful about the use of memory.
  so I was wondering if anyone knows how to set up the best of 'virtual memory': min and max: about 1.5 to 2 times the size of RAM?
  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  Please go to:

  Properties - "Advanced" tab - control panel in the button 'Edit' performance zone - tab "Advanced"

  You will find the virtual memory settings.
  I recommend you set the settings of "size of system managed". In this case the OS will control the value automatically.

  I have a Tecra M2V under XP. I've been experiancing slowdowns in all of my running applications. I have cleaned the readers of PC, defragmented etc but there seems to be no change.

  Hello

  The Windows XP operating system use a space on the hard drive as virtual memory. This means that a file is a space on the hard disk that Windows uses as if it were RAM.
  The file size is variable and you can change the size of file in the performance Options.

  Please go to control panel - system - Advanced tab. You will find the Performance parameters.
  In the performance Options, you will find 3 tabs (Visual effects, advanced, Data Execution Prevention). On the Advanced tab, you can find the option to change the virtual memory.

  Good bye

• How to use 1 GB SD-Card as virtual memory?

  Had the brilliant idea to use my SD card of 1 GB of virtual memory.
  This gives a new impetus and speed up things in the ir, it's just a "idea light and nothing on boost.
  Thanks for the info

  Did you mean paging?
  You can do something like that on the HARD drive but I don't think it's possible with the SD card.
  Virtual memory, you can set in the Advanced memory virtual System Properties Advanced performance options

  The virtual memory size can be defined on each HARD disk or partition

  2. which opens your performance Options. Click the Advanced tab. For private users 'typical' Processor Scheduling & Memory use must be set to "programs".
  3. under virtual memory, click change.
  4. which opens the virtual memory options. If you have more than one hard drive, make sure that your primary hard drive is selected under "Drive".
  5. under "Paging File Size for selected device" check the box indicating the size of the managed system.
  6. click OK in all the 3 boxes to close off these settings and restart your computer

• Settings for virtual memory for Qosmio X 505-8104 X

  Hello group,
  What is the best setting of virtual memory for general use for a x 505-8104 x with the hybrid c drive?

  Hi steilacoom.

  Best option is if Windows manage size of pagefile for all readers. Windows automatically sets the best size of swap file and you don t have to do anything.

  So just check the option automatically manage paging file for all readers size and get you the best performance and don t have any problems with the pagefile.
