Virtual Memory Question

Monday, March 17, 2008 by PoSmedley | Discussion: Personal Computing

I recently upgraded my memory. I have a very modest computer and finally grew tired of seeing the little pop-up telling me my virtual memory was low while I was in the middle of a Photoshop project. I went from 512MB to 2GB. I'm still getting the low virtual memory message. I know it can be adjusted and I also know if you don't do it right, it can just make the performance worse.
This is what I am working with.





Any help would be appreciated. I know there is probably a standard setting for what I have to work with and probably a tweaked for optimum performance setting, so if you could let me know which way you're taking me with any adjustments, I would be grateful.
Thanks.

Po' you can pick up hard drives very cheaply at newegg.com

You are in capable hands with Yrag. Hopefully he'll suggest a good utility package to keep your machine running smoothly. I think he likes jv16 which is a great but TuneUp 2008 is equally impressive.
