Not enough virtual memory?

[diabloII]

recently while i've been playing cs:s, i'd lag whenever i turn around or anything fires (no, this isn't internet lag)

 

i've also received "virtual memory too low" many times (only recently though)

 

do i have to decrease my vitual mem? increase it?

 

currently, the settings are 1536-3072mb (1 gig ram, 200gb hdd)

 

n task manager when im playing cs:s, the page file usage is always at the max (3GB~3072mb)

 

should i increase it?

 

btw, i read that if the computer is too virtual memory dependant, then it'll screw up the performance, is this true?

 

thx

I have this same issue in HL2. Full stripped nlite windows with 1GB of ram yet HL2 loads like . and runs choppy after awhile with a low virtual memory error popping up. It wasn't like this at first but farther in the game, about half way I guess, this started happening.

Set to min = 3072 & max = 3072, fixed size. :nod:

The question is why does your PC need such a huge pagefile? I'd say there is something fundamentaly wrong somewhere (what? I'm not sure). I havent run a pagefile larger than 256Mb for about 4 years now.

3072mb should be enough.

Probably memory leak or something. Check your taskmanager and see whats eating up your memory.
