Your hard drive may be running low on disk space. Open Windows Explorer and
right click on the drive icon (usually C
and click on the Properties
option. If the amount of free space displayed in the Properties window is
less than 10 percent of the total drive/partition size,
then low disk space is most likely the cause.
To fix this you can click on the 'Disk Cleanup' located near the bottom
right of the Properties Window. In the 'Disk Cleanup' window place check
marks in the boxes that show a lot of drive space being consumed, typically
'Temporary Internet Files', 'Recycle Bin', and 'Temporary Files'.
Also if you manually set the size of the pagefile you may need to increase
it.
Click Start, and then select/click the Control Panel option.
Next click on the 'System' icon..
In the 'System Properties' windows click on the 'Advanced tab'.
Locate the box titled 'Performance' and click on the 'Settings' button
In the 'Performance Options' select the 'Advanced' tab.
Near the bottom you will see a box labeled 'Virtual Memory', click on the
'Change' button.
In the 'Under Drive [Volume Label]' column, select the drive that contains
the paging
file that you want to change the size or to create a page file.
In the 'Paging file size for selected drive' box , click to select the
'System managed size' check box (this is the recommended default), and then
click Set.
If you decide to choose the 'Custom size' option,
then make certain that the 'Initial size' and 'Maximum size' values are at
least 1.5 times the actual
amount of ram memory in your PC as a starting point.
Click the OK button 3 times to exit.
You will need to 'Restart' the computer for the changes to take effect.

My computer is saying "Virtual memory too low"
i recently downloaded AVG and uninstalled Norton and now i am getting this
popup almost every hour!
What is Virtual memory?
AVG is supposed to take up less space than Norton, so why would this pop
up
now?
How do i fix this?
Any help would be great!
