    For the last few nights now, I've received a warning that my computer is low on virtual memory. It then says it's going to do something to rectify it.

    Is there anything I can do to increase the virtual memory myself & prevent the warning appearing?

    XP ?

    Right click my computer / properties / advanced / performance / advanced / virtual memory </p>

    Set as &quot;system managed&quot;. Apply and reboot.</p>

    From memory, similar.

    Though you won't have the option for &quot;system managed&quot;. But if you set it to the &quot;recommended&quot; (shown near bottom) then you should be OK after reboot.
