    Virtual Ram

    Virtual RAM is basically space on your hard drive that Windows can use as extra RAM, but drive access to data so much slower than RAM access to data.

  3. My virtual ram is not being used!

    Hello! My name is Cristiano. I'm an Independent Advisor. I'm glad to help you.

    First off, it's great that you've already allocated 15000MB (15GB) of virtual memory as the minimum. That's a good start. However, it seems like Windows is still predominantly utilizing your physical RAM.

    To ensure that Windows effectively uses your virtual RAM, here are a few steps you can follow:

    1. Open the "System Properties" window by right-clicking on the "This PC" or "My Computer" icon on your desktop and selecting "Properties."

    2. In the System Properties window, click on the "Advanced system settings" link on the left-hand side.

    3. A new window will appear. Under the "Performance" section, click the "Settings" button.

    4. In the Performance Options window, navigate to the "Advanced" tab.

    5. Look for the "Virtual memory" section and click on the "Change" button.

    6. Ensure that the option "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives" is unchecked.

    7. Select the drive where your operating system is installed (usually the C: drive).

    8. Choose the "Custom size" option and set both the initial size (minimum) and maximum size to 15000MB (or any desired value you want to allocate). Make sure the values are the same.

    9. Click on the "Set" button, then hit "OK" to save the changes and close all the windows.

    By configuring the virtual memory settings manually, you're instructing Windows to utilize the allocated space effectively. This should allow your system to use virtual RAM more frequently.

    I hope these steps help you.

    Virtual Ram

    Increasing your Virtual RAM will not make your PC faster because drive access is much slower than RAM access, how much RAM do you have on your PC?
