Hi I get the above error on a 256 RAM machine running XP Home.. I cant see
why I am eating away my RAM to utilise any virtual memory..
My settings are default.
 
Patch and upgrade all your programs. Probably some form of memory leak thats
eating your memory.
 
I would suggest setting the page file size to twice the amount of your RAM.
In your case this would be 512 MB. Set the initial and max size both to
512. If the initial size is smaller then system resources can be tied up by
the process of increasing the pagefile size.

The real issue is that you need to find out what is soaking up your machines
resources. I'd suggest doing a full AV scan and checking for unnecessary
programs loading at startup.

Kind Regards,
