Virtual memory is set in system properties,R.click my
computer,properties,advanced,virtual memory,change butt-
on.Set min.to 1 1/2 X ram,(it list on opening page)max.
is 3X.However letting windows manage is the best bet,if
its to low,buy more ram,the setting usually isnt the
problem,its not enough ram hardware.Buy another hd,set
as slave,then set to page file,then youve doubled the
amount,you need to click"set Button" 2X for changes.

Hi Justin,
Funny you should ask about that. It's a popular topic tonight!
1. In Control Panel / System / Advanced / click the Performance
"Settings..." button which open the "Performance Options" box.
2. Click the "Advanced" tab and then the "Change..." button.
3. Scroll through the list, click on any line that has a value listed in
the "Paging File Size" column, click the "No paging file" choice,
and then click the "Set" button for the page file to be cleared.
4. After completing step 3 for each entry, click OK 3 times to exit.
5. Restart the computer, hold down F8 to startup in Safe Mode.
6. Delete each pagefile.sys you find on your drive's partitions.
7. Repeat steps 1+2, and click the "System managed size" choice.
8. Click the "Set" button, click OK 3 times, and restart the system.
9. For a visualization of the Virtual Memory Page file configuration try:
