I have been having some problems with StarCraft 2. The game keeps giving me an error message saying something along the lines of: "Your computer is running low on/has run out of paged pool memory" so I was wondering how would I go about increasing said memory. If it is any help I run on windows XP and my computer should be able to run on medium graphics no problem (which is what I am trying to run on as I refuse to go down to low graphics which look terrible).
Need computer help please

Start -> Control Panel
Click System -> Advanced Tab
Click Settings in the Performance section
Click the Advanced tab and then click Change under in the Virtual Memory section
There you go, you can manually set your Virtual/page memory, it's usually setup correctly but if you need to increase it, what you want to change would be the maximum size.
Edit: Just so you know, your computer makes virtual memory out of hard drive space, so make sure you have some space available before doing this.

..Anything higher, though to make a real difference at least 1024Mb more.I'm surprised it dosen't run correctly even with 4GB max virtual RAM, that's pretty high... Does it chokes almost immediately or it does that after a few hours of playing ?0z0wen said:
Well, there's my answer, it makes sense now.0z0wen said:yeah physical RAM is a bit embarassing its about 1 GB I really need to buy atleast another gig. its really annoying because RAM is about the only place my pc fails
If you only have 1GB of physical RAM i'd strongly suggest using at least 4GB-6GB (4096-6144)of virtual RAM, it's slower than real memory but it'll help...
So I need to change the intial to 4096 and maximum to 6144 alright thanks for the helpMekado said:Well, there's my answer, it makes sense now.0z0wen said:yeah physical RAM is a bit embarassing its about 1 GB I really need to buy atleast another gig. its really annoying because RAM is about the only place my pc fails
