I had the same problem with a program, actually the exact same 3MB error. It occured when I added a page file to another drive. When I just left the VM on the C drive it was OK. Obviously it's a flaw in that particular program, not the computer.

The last time I saw a message like that, Adobe Photoshop7 was the problem child. I moved the pagefile to a partition on a faster drive which solved that little problem. There seemed to be a clash with it's own (Adobe) caching system and Windows.
