    Guys I got Win 10 Enterprise edition. Patched to the latest.


    Unusual Low Virtual memory error: Hows that possible? ?hash=681a79e73d14bad6c8b067166a81577b.png


    My system has only 1.2GB of Virtual memory assigned (As have 18gb Physical ram so never felt the need to have a proper virtual memory allocated) Google /forums etc. as well suggested the same.

    Yesterday I was browsing heavily in Firefox with 2 physical tabs opened which again had multiple tabs inside them opened (almost 25)

    While all was going smooth suddenly system froze and went unresponsive.

    So somehow managed to capture the monitor with my cellphone and here is the result:


    Unusual Low Virtual memory error: Hows that possible? ?hash=681a79e73d14bad6c8b067166a81577b.jpg


    As one can see out of 18gb Ram only 47% was utilized.

    I rebooted the system & peeked into Event logs only to find this unusual:

    Unusual Low Virtual memory error: Hows that possible? ?hash=681a79e73d14bad6c8b067166a81577b.jpg


    Now in spite of having 18gb of system memory and off that only 47% being utilized why did the system froze due to Low virtual memory condition?

    As per my bets knowledge, Virtual memory is necessary only for system having smaller amounts of physical ram (4/6 gb). Correct me though as google as well says the same.

    Needlessly out of fear I now have allocated a Virtual memory of 8gb.

    Also, the last screenshot point to some Hypervisor I think this isn't related to my core issue. Correct me though.

    Please advise regarding the Virtual memory issue.

    Crashes, Low memory Warnings after changing Virtual Memory settings


    Hello,

    I've been experiencing sluggish performance, browsers were laggy and non responsive after having many tabs.

    I found that the solution to improve performance was to change Virtual Memory values and disable "paging file size" for all drives.

    Now the computer performance is amazing, everything responds properly but now I'm getting error messages of low memory and getting crashes. A few minutes ago the computer crashed to a black screeen.

    Here are the values I have right now in Virtual Memory, what else should I do to stop these crashes? I already tried a few different values but the problem still persists.

    Any suggestions?

    Proccessor AMD 6300

    GPU Ati Radeon 7790

    8GB DDR3

    Motherboard ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970

    Low on memory???

    Hi,





    Programs using too much memory and possible infection are a few of the factors that can trigger a Low on memory warning in Windows 10. We suggest running the
    System Maintenance Troubleshooter. This will automatically detect issues that might affect system performance. Follow the steps below:



    • Type Troubleshooting in Search.
    • Select Troubleshooting Control Panel.
    • Click View all.
    • Click System Maintenance.
    • Hit Next.


    Let us know if you need additional assistance.
