Title: memuse reading virtual memory correctly ? Post by: Tom on October 03, 2007, 03:06:27 pm hi :)
do i understand correctly that by virtual memory, memuse (0.4 I have) means the paging file? mine is currently set to 3gb on a second harddrive (not on C:) memuse says 1,989,263,360 kb i presume, which would make it roughly 2gb. I have 2gb ram which is showing correctly. I'm wondering because - I've been having problems with one programme in particular - it is an old (1999) programme & I've just installed on new dual-core pc When I try start it first time from desktop shortcut it complains about not enough memory Second time it starts but forgets all preferences selected from last time. I dont expect you to solve the problems with programme !! - just wondering about the pagefile if windows is even using it properly.. & wondering if i understand the memuse figures (To complicate things apparently theres a hotfix often necessary for xp sp2 if you have more than 1gb of ram. I was having trouble hibernating - error was "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the API" but the hotfix (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909095) fixed that...but not the above problem) thanks, tom Title: Re: memuse reading virtual memory correctly ? Post by: no name on February 13, 2008, 10:55:03 pm This is probably due to 32-bit windows not being able to use more than roughly 4 GB of ram, if its a 64-bit version though it should be fine.
