Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low
I have a Dimension 8250 with Windows XP. Lately the computer has been slow opening things on the internet and off the internet. This morning I received an error on the desktop that said:
Virtual memory minimum too low - low on virtual memory. Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory. Paging file during this process, memory requests for some applications may be denied.
I don't know where to go to fix this. Any help would be appreciated.

- Click on Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Adjust visual effects > Advanced > Look towards the bottom and click on Change in the Virtual Memory box > This is where you can change the size of the V/Memory.Don't know how much memory you have on your system, but we hope its at least 512 mb if not more. You would be better off with 1 gb of main memory to run windows xp and the other programs much better.....Read this.... http://computer.howstuffworks.com/virtual-memory.htm
