Andrewr05 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Lately I've been getting low memory warnings. Task Manager and Resouremon show this: Not sure what the hell is causing it.

bp9801 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Have you messed with the pagefile size any? Any driver crashes recently? Newly installed programs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wesstron Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Got the same thing 2 days ago. Memory barely in use, my guess is MS messed up an update lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Got the same thing 2 days ago. Memory barely in use, my guess is MS messed up an update lolThe exact same thing? Have you messed with the pagefile size any? Any driver crashes recently? Newly installed programs? Actually the page file was set to 1024-4096 on my C: drive, which I thought I had disabled. Earlier I turned off the C: drive pagefile and set my other drives to handle paging. Nothing new installed and no driver crashing.

bp9801 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Try letting Windows manage the pagefile and see what happens. My modified memory usage is around 100MB, but I did recently restart my PC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) I think I may have fixed the issue OR as I was modifying the setting it unknowingly released the memory. I found this here (thanks Wesstron for saying you were having a similar problem, it made me search MS technet) and then disabled write caching on all of my drives and it appears to have worked. I do do quite a lot of transfers to external drives and from HDD to HDD on a daily basis, so I'm thinking it is some MS bug.

bp9801 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Aha, well sounds like a nice fix then. Gotta love when bugs are introduced to try and fix other bugs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats an embarrassing screw up too, I'm surprised I didn't catch that and that no one else pointed it out sooner.
