Virtual memory

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.setup (More info?)

My laptop used to work fine upto now. Now I have a "Windows out of Virtual Memory" message. I can see the folders in it thru a share from my desktop. Is there a way to change the virtual memory settings and get the machine back in working condition. At the moment I can do nothing on the laptop. I cannot see any icons or anything on the screen. Any help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Divyesh Shah

Usually occurs when the "Everyone" group permissions are removed from the
%systemdrive% Make sure that the System account (NT Authority) has full
control of the %systemdrive% and or the drive you're trying to put the
pagefile on. My Computer|Drive|File|Properties|Security|Permissions

The system account (nt authority) is the operating system's account and
needs to have full control of the drive(s) the pagefile exists on. The
system account is included in the "Everyone" group.
