The computer shows that the virtual memory is too low, what is it? What should I do

In general, it is recommended that Windows automatically allocate and manage virtual memory, which can dynamically adjust the size of virtual memory according to the actual memory usage.

2.About the minimum.

Windows recommends that the minimum value of the page file should be the current system physical memory capacity plus 12MB, and for users with less than 256MB of physical memory, it is recommended to set the minimum value of the page file to a larger value

If you are using 128MB or less RAM, it is recommended that you set the multiple of the current physical memory capacity to the minimum value of the page file.

For users with a memory size between 128MB and 256MB, it is recommended to set the multiple of the current physical memory capacity to the minimum value of the page file.

3.About the maximum.

In general, the larger the maximum value of the page file, the better, and it is recommended to set it to 2 to 3 times the minimum value.

4.Extreme cases.

If the hard disk space is tight, when setting the page file, you only need to ensure that it is not less than 3 4 of the physical memory.

If the physical memory is large (greater than 512MB), the virtual memory can be disabled.

5.It is set according to different task environments.

A 3D game-based environment.

3D games have high requirements for CPU, graphics card and memory, if the physical memory is less than 256MB, it is recommended to preset the virtual memory to be larger, which is very helpful to improve the stability and smoothness of the game.

**Apps have a big appetite for hard disk space, but don't set up a lot of virtual memory as you would in a 3D gaming environment, especially for Windows XP users. Because Windows XP doesn't automatically free up unnecessary space, which means that the file size will get bigger and bigger. If you put the virtual memory and Windows XP in the same partition, after the **RM, ASF, etc.** stream files, the system will often prompt you that the virtual memory is too small or the disk space is insufficient.

Looking at the page file at this time, it is already 1GB in size. Therefore, it is recommended that Windows XP users who often enjoy ** files should set the initial value a little smaller, or transfer the virtual memory to a partition other than the system disk.

Second, the setting method.

The following takes the drive letter where the virtual memory is located under Windows XP as an example to introduce the setting method of virtual memory: enter "Open Control Panel System", select the "Advanced" tab, click the "Settings" button in the "Performance" column, select the "Advanced" tab, and click the "Change" button in the "Virtual Memory" column to enter the "Virtual Memory" window; Select the system drive letter in the drive list, then check the "No paging files" option, and then click the "Settings" button; Then click on the other sections, select the "Custom Size" option, set the values in the "Initial Size" and "Maximum" values, then click the "Settings" button, and finally click the "OK" button to exit.

Right-click on "My Computer", > the "Advanced" tab > "Performance" settings > the "Advanced" tab > "Virtual Memory" changes.

Let's make the virtual memory a little bigger.

My computer right-click - Properties - Advanced - Performance Settings - Advanced - Virtual Memory Settings. It is generally 1.5 times the physical memory.
