Limited Virtual Memory Error

IBey · 11-23-2004, 01:57 PM

Wondering if this is familiar to anyone.

Whenever I restart (log out/in for that matter) Windows, I receive the following error message: "Limited Virtual Memory Error". I am then notified that a temp memory page of size 20MB is being reserved by windows. The catch is that I have 768MB of RAM installed so I manually reset set my intial/maximum virtual page size to 1138MB /1536MB respectively. Unfortunately, whenever I restart, Wwindows Doesn't hold the previous change I made. I performed a virus scan and everything comes up clean (maybe it' a new virus - no definition yet).

If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Try it with only 100MB above the default. You need to reserve memory for other things beside cache. This works fine for me.
cheers

Well .. problems seems to be with your registry file... Your registry file may be full.. so either u need to clean it... or need to set the quota for it..

thanks
