Computer Game Memory Usage?
82406
Sounds like a good system. You might want to go into your task manager like the above people were saying and check not only if there are lingering tasks running from your game, but, check what all you are running period. In WinXP SP2, you should have less than 30 processes running.\nFrom what you've said, I would expect the problem to be either memory leaks from poor clean-up process with the game or your page file is having issues.\n-When you go into your Task Manager, click on the Performance Tab. On the bottom left, take a look at the Commit Charge info. If the 'Peak' is significantly more than twice the physical ram, you might want to look into adding more ram.\nYou mentioned the 250 Gb Drive. Do you have any other drives?\nA significant speed increase can be realized by utilizing multiple hard drives. A small one for your Operating System.  A fast, small drive for your Paging File and Printer Spooler. And data drive for your music, games, etc.\nSee the link below regarding moving the paging file to an alternate drive.\n\nIf it ends up simply being your game's ram cleanup, the only thing you can really do is reboot after gameplay. It might be inconvenient, if you're lucky, it will be addressed with a patch from the game's website. >I might suggest emailing support for the game just to see if they have a suggested configuration for your system<

A) run defrag  (if you cant find it search your computer for it through start -> search\nB) Try deleting stuff that you don't use.\nC) Buy more RAM\nD) Buy a better graphics card (it has its own memory s well)

Here's a few things you might want to think about:\n\nPress {windows} and {pause break} and see if it's reporting your full memory amount.  \n\nWatch the performance tab in task manager and watch your memory usage as you copy and paste.\n\nAre you managing your swap file manually or do you let Windows do it?  \n\nAlso, try running memtest to check your memory for errors:\n\nhttp://hcidesign.com/memtest/MemTest.zip

what is it?   When all the RAM is being used (for example if there are many programs open at the same time) the computer will swap data to the hard drive and back to give the impression that there is slightly more memory.\n\nThe best thing to do is to buy more memory, not the most cost effective, but the best.\n\nIf you are running XP, you can also goto start->run-> "msconfig".  Click on the startup tab and there should be a bunch of junk such as OEM software, just look and play around.  make sure you don't turn off spyware, virus, or firewalls.

You can try closing some programs: go to task manager(CTRL+ALT+DEL). At the processes tab see what programs are using more memory (there's a column "Mem usage") and close some them. (be sure what you close, you need some of them...)\nthat should give you enough memory to uninstall whatever you want.

The virtual memory is the what is used when your RAM is full, or otherwise used. The data stored there is already processed, but not in use. It's actually inefficient, compared to more RAM. \n\n   If you have quite a bit free space, but the message still appears, follow these instructions:\n\n1. Go to the Control Panel. On the Start Menu for Windows XP, or Start Menu/Settings for Windows 95/95, ME and 2000 users. \n\n2. Click on the System icon. \n\n3. Change to the Advanced tab, and then click the Settings button under Performance. \n\n4. Click on the Advanced tab on the window that opens, then click on the Change buttong in the Virtual Memory section. \n\n5. From there, you can increase the numbers to a reasonable amount, such as 750 on Initial and 1150 on Maximum.

A few tips for getting your  PC to run a little better.\n\n1. Right click My Computer\n> Click Properties  \n>Click Advanced tab at the top.\n>In the Performance box click settings,\n>Click Adjust for best performance and Apply.\n2. In the same window click on the Advance tab.\n>in the Virtual Memory box click Change,\n>In the Paging file size for selected drive click Custom size,\n>You can put what you want in the initial size, depending on how much hard drive space you have, I put about 2000-3000, it is not going to work like upgrading RAM, but it does help, when you've determined how much to put in click OK, then apply. You might have to restart your computer.

Even if the game took a little less than 1.5GB your hard drive would be almost completely full and you would have no room for virtual memory, this could really slow down your system.\n\nActually the others are wrong, 1401MB does NOT equal 1.401GB  1401MB =1.368GB\n1GB=1024MB

You might have a lot of programs running and have little RAM memory left. Or maybe you might have a virus. I recomend that you check for viruses and for your memory.
