    Virtual Memory?


    Hi,

    System has 2 GB of Physical Memory, is the setting for Virtual Memory 3057 MB min and max fine?

    Does deleting/no page file, and than restoring do any good?

    Thanks.

    Hello Alexey,

    What you have set should be fine. If you ever get a "low memory" or "out of memory" type error, then it usually means that the page file size is to low and needs to be increased.

    Usually it's best to let your page file be managed by the system instead. This way Windows will be able to automatically increase the page file as needed based on demand.
