I'm running Win XP Pro, everythings running fine since I've had it. One thing tho, since I defragged my machine about a week ago (using Norton Speed disk), when my computer is shutting down or rebooting, from time to time I'll get a message dialog box saying Windows Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low. It's ONLY when it's shutting down or rebooting, not at all while I'm using my computer (for any length of time). I think it's something to do with the pagefile, but I'm not too familiar with it. Any one have ideas to how I can fix this. It's not a big thing, just annoying to see the box pop up. I have tried a few things, to which no avail. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is it true? Have you not supplied the monster with what it needs? Excuse me. I meant, what it wants. If you have left virtual memory up to Windows, perhaps your hard drive is running out of space. It really does an okay job of managing virtual memory, but it needs plenty of space to do so. If you're down to half a gig of space, it's time to do some spring cleaning, or try taking matters into your own hands by telling Windows how much it can use. Let us know your situation, drive space, virtual memory setting, and we can try to work it out.

Sorry it took so long for me to respond, I have a 40 gig Maxtor HDD and have 34 gigs free. I'm always cleaning my computer (formatting every 3 - 6 months), I only have programs in my computer that I use, and I built it myself, so it's not one of those compaq's or hp's that puts stuff on a computer that you don't need or use. Thanks for the reply, and again, sorry it took so long for me to respond.

If you have this problem and you have Norton Internet Security or Personal Firewall installed? If so, here's the deal: "Welcome to Symantec's online discussion groups. >Since I last updated my Norton Internet Security I now receive the >following message when I shut down my computer. >"Virtual memory minimum to low." "Windows is increasing the size of >your virtual memory paging file." This issue was caused by a recent Live Update. We are investigating why this is happening. Currently, there are a few different options to work around the problem. You can disable Norton Internet Security before shutting down or restarting Windows. Or you can uninstall and reinstall Internet Security and select to not download the current program updates. I do apologize about the situation, we will resolve the issues as soon as possible." Hopefully they will have a fix soon.

Go to control panels - system - advance - performance click on settings - advance - virtual memory click change - custom size - initial size 500 and max 500 - set value or some thing like that, ok - apply ok - restart to change settings -problem will be solved.
