Solution for virtual memory minimum is too low

  
        

Symptom description: When running large software or exiting large 3D games, the bottom right corner of the taskbar prompts “virtual memory minimum is too low”, causing the system to run slower; in fact, the system prompts that the virtual memory is insufficient or the minimum value is too low. Because the physical memory capacity is too small, virtual memory will be enabled only when the physical memory usage exceeds the upper limit. Once the physical memory capacity is too small, the virtual memory configuration is unreasonable, resulting in "the virtual memory minimum is too low". "Virtual memory is low" and other issues;

Virtual memory minimum is too low solution:

In fact, increasing the physical memory capacity (increasing the memory stick) is to solve the "virtual memory minimum too The best way to low is that virtual memory will not be enabled as long as the physical memory capacity is large enough; of course, if you do not increase the physical memory capacity, a reasonable allocation of virtual memory can also reduce the occurrence of "virtual memory minimum." The frequency of the low "question;

Step 1: Right click on "My Computer" -> Select "Properties" -> Switch to "High" Level" -> Click "Settings" (the first setting button) on the right side of the "Performance" item -> Switch to the "Advanced" tab in the "Performance Options" window that pops up -> Click on the bottom virtual "Change (C)" of the memory item;

Step 2: In the "Virtual Memory" window that pops up, first click on the C: drive under the [Volume Label] -> and then " "Initial Size (MB)" and "Maximum (MB)" under Custom Size are set to 0 -> Click "Settings", do not close the window; (This operation is to remove virtual memory from the default C The disk is transferred to other drive letters. Because the C drive is used as the operating system drive letter, its capacity is too small, and the C drive is very frequently read and written. Therefore, setting the virtual memory to other drive letters can improve the system running speed.

Step 3: Click on the E: drive under "Drive [Volume Label]" -> click "Custom Size (C)" -> Set the "Initial Size" to the same size as the physical content. For example, 1G memory used by Xiaobian, that is, the "initial size" is set to 1024 -> the maximum value is set to physics The storage capacity is 1.5 to 2 times, and the 1G memory should be set to 1536 or 2048 -> and then click "Set (S)". At this time, the page file size of the E disk will display the currently allocated virtual memory capacity range - —>Click “OK” on the last road to exit;

If the system often prompts “The virtual memory minimum is too low”, Xiaobian feels that adding memory to increase physical memory capacity is the best solution. , the allocation of virtual memory size can only reduce the frequency of prompts, and can not solve the problem fundamentally.
