Virtual Memory Low

Case Study: Today, I was asked "also the Virtual Memory Low window pops up for no good reason".

My first response back to him, was to check his disk space, since virtual memory swaps out to disk.  

But lets dig deeper into this.

Checking your RAM (Computer's Memory) For Errors using Microsoft Windows Diagnostic

Case Study: On my older Dell Dimension with 1K of RAM, applications that I would run would crash at random times, at random spots. The crash could happen soon after the application was started or 5-20 minutes later.

Possible Causes:

  • Bad "bit" of memory (RAM)
  • Some other reason.

Possible Solution: For this blog post, I will test the RAM in the machine. Since I am running Windows on this machine, I will use the Microsoft Windows Diagnostic.
