Virtual memory warning reset itself - problem of paging file No.

Similar Questions

• Virtual memory pagefile resets automatically

  Can you please explain why I repeatedly set the virtual memory on my win 7 x 64 PC (16 GB of RAM, 3 hard drives).

  Whenever I set up with the swap file is not located on the C: drive, it works well for a few weeks maximum, then spontaneously returns, on C: it's getting really annoying.

  I don't want a page on C: file - it's a SSD and decrease wear a tear of additional access if one of my goals.  I always establish either a managed by system pagefile on the other two disks (d and e) or set the fixed size too - it makes no difference - windows accepts the new settings, then change them randomly in a few weeks.

  If I can't change those settings, why pretend to give me the option?

  Not happy.

  If I have a pagefile on the C: why Windows allow it to be turned off?

  Because the controls for the page file are simple and global. If Windows detects that the need to create a page on C file, it will do and it has always been like that...

  I must ask, why this is not in the help information?  I shouldn't go to an online forum because something does not work in the way that Windows insists it does.

  Creation of help files is a huge job, and if help files included all imaginable configurations, you would be hard-pressed to run to find out what you wanted and could be grinding too on this subject... :-)

  Surely with hundreds of MB of updates, I did it they could include an update of info ToolTips and help for this feature.

  Yes, they could, but there is no hard and fast rule about page files other than the fact that all THE Windows operating systems, and others, need one.

  Unless you disable virtual memory completely Windows makes no mention of this requirement and when it does it says a minimum 800 MB file.

  Virtual memory should not be disabled completely. Each source has its own algorithm to work on the optimal size for a swap file. The thought was that at least 500 MB for dump files. That may have changed, and in all cases, it is always preferable to provide a little more than the bare minimum...

  I would also add that in two generations previous Windows, it was not a requirement, and I have to marvel at the stupidity of introducing it.

  He was ALWAYS a requirement, but Microsoft have changes to allow greater freedom of Windows 7. Thinking change over time and what was good x years there may be irrelevant today...

  Sad to say, it's typical Microsoft and only the wheel that squeaks Gets the oil, so now I'm grinding.

  It is not more typical of Microsoft it's others. You just have not met similar problems on other platforms... :-)

  Then why do you want to move your file on the SSD page? With the amount of RAM you have, page file reads/writes will be minimum and an SSD is the absolute ideal of a file of page anyway. Wear of SSD drives can be overstated, as much as SSDS are becoming better, and in all probability, you will need a new computer before your SSD wears

• message box from lack of virtual memory being received twice now; need explanation & advice on how to remedy

  Hello everyone,

  May 19 and still today, May 20, I saw an opportunity where a dialog box open above the taskbar, indicating that the virtual memory of my computer was too low and the system took some sort of action (I don't remember that well)... and some of my applications could be affected.

  May 19, low virtual memory warning appeared while I was trying to delete some 25 000 stored "potentially unwanted programs", quarantined by my software off that McAfee security, but was unable to do - my computer basically locked in place.  I managed to go Windows and remove all the .bup files in the McAfee VirusScan quarantine folder.

  Today, on May 20, I spent about an hour playing a game on my computer called, 'Ocean Beach 2. '  After finishing, my screen started to be slowly re-posted, and it was at this time that I noticed this insufficient virtual memory notification even appear just above the taskbar once more.   (The dialog box said also click tasks 'Help' for more information on the icon bar.  I have not done so... but there is no information here... only some documentation about a "language bar".

  I have a Dell Dimension 3000 Mid Tower computer model, WIN XP, SP3, Intel Pentium 4 (hyperthreading), 3.00 Ghz CPU, 512 MB RAM, 40 GB hard drive with a little more 27.0 GB of free space on it.  (McAfee security software is provided free by Cox Communications (my ISP).  I run a full scan of Malwarebytes FREE version just to make sure I didn't have some malware that is present; everything is okay there.

  I would appreciate if anyone can enlighten me as to why I got these notifications "low virtual memory"; does that mean I have a serious problem with the operating system. and I can do to solve this problem and prevent any recurring anthing?

  Thank you very much in advance for your time and any help!

  First, when a multiplicity of files and folders are created and deleted, it is always a good idea to optimize the system before and after that, in order to ensure that the file system is stable...

  also a melody is always a good idea to do at least once a month.

  Open Explorer > right click on the drive letter, select Properties, go to the Tools tab, run a disk check.

  then reboot and do a Defrag.

  either way, do a defrag can be problematic, given that you found problems of lack of virtual memory.

• Virtual memory problem?

  Hello

  I run Vista 32 bit on a Dell laptop (Core 2 Duo T8300 2.40 GHz with 4 GB of RAM installed to)
  On a laptop earlier under XP, I have improved performance with virtual memory on a form different disk with the operating system.
  So, I tried to use the same option on my Vista laptop.

  I have the following problems / symptoms:

  (1) SearchIndexer.exe continously uses 50 to 70% of CPU (but it doesn't seem to be the disk activity hard anycontinueous)

  (2) Microsoft Outlook 2007 does not start. I just get the blue white screen with the yellow tone of Outlook 2007, and then he hangs up. One is to close to complete the process via the Task Manager
  The next time I try to start, it displays the option to start in safe mode. If I do, Outlook 2007 starts OK (I do not know what to do with Outlook in safe mode to correct things if :-()

  (3) IE8 starts and seems to operate normally (though slower). However, whenever I restart IE8 it displys the warning that IE8 last time ended abnormally and provides options to start with the last URL used either with normal start page

  Trying to catch exactly what I have done and in what order, I'm not really sure that Outlook was closed when I changed the location of the virtual memory to 100%.

  I know I probably screwed up a kind of grand, and I only hope that there is a way to get the thing corrected without having to reinstall everything from scratch.

  I tried to use this last system restore point, but the restoration doesn't go through, because of an unspecified problem.
  I ran the diagnostics Office option. Who reported no problems.
  I have reset virtual memory on OS drive, leaving the size and location of control Vista.

  Grateful for any help or suggestion in order to avoid a complete reinstallation. Editing the registry?

  It should not. In fact, I would recommend keeping the virtual memory (swap file) on the HDD main and just allowing advanced performance of the drive in the Device Manager.

  You can go to Device Manager, expand the category of 'Hard drives', right-click you primary hard drive > properties, click the 'Policies' tab and select 'Advanced Performance' at the bottom.

  The deactivation of the service should not affect your other programs unless they use the Windows Service of Indexer to search for things. As for example, Outlook uses the indexer to allow you to quickly search through your mail. The key word is quickly. Outlook can return to the default search is slower, but really what the majority of users have been used anyway.

• 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...

• Your system is low on virtual memory. Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file. This process may be denied requests for some applications.

  When I start my laptop I get "your system is low on virtual memory. Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file. This process may be denied requests for some applications. "and my laptop takes forever or does not open my programs. any help? Thank you.

  less than low disk space,

  What seems to be the case, it's that your windows is having a hard time resize its file for virtual memory.

  my suggestion is to remove "auto" at that time, and then set a custom format.

  I recommend that you set the initial size of 2 and max at 1152.

• 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:
  http://www.worthgodwin.com/computer-lessons-blog/2008/02/what-is-RAM-what-is-hard-drive-plain.html
  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:
