RE: Virtual Memory?

Are you connected to the internet when you get this? Try disconnecting from the internet and see if this still occurs.

Retards. It means you have too much crap on your hard-drive. Either delete stuff or get more physical memory

I came close to filling my hard drive many times and it never said "Virtual Memory" it says "Hard Disk" or "C Drive".

RE: Virtual Memory?

virtual memory = RAM........

when was the last time you turned your computer off?....try doing that. Programmers are notorious for having memory bugs in programs, they allocate memory and then dont give it back to the OS when they are done with it....this causes your RAM to slowly fill up....just turn off your computer and let your RAM refresh for a few seconds and you should be good to go again.....get some more RAM too

Dude

virtual memory != RAM.

When your physical memory is fully used, your computer uses your hard drive as a memory storage device. Your computer allocates space on your hard drive to use it as virtual memory. When you have too much crap on your hard drive and not enough physical memory then you get that message.

You probably also had plenty of physical memory or wasn't running any memory intensive programs.
