Dan's tip: Windows XP page file
Your virtual memory (also called a page file) is an area on your hard drive that your computer uses as RAM. You can modify your virtual memory settings to your liking. Here's how.

  1. Right-click on My Computer and select Properties.
  2. Click on the Advanced tab. Under Performance, click the Setting button.
  3. Click on the Advanced tab.
  4. Click Change.
  5. Now you can adjust the page file size. We recommend a page file that's about twice the amount of actual RAM in your PC. If you have 256MB of RAM, make the page file 512MB.
