Unused Ram is waisted Ram. My opinion would to do a
custom setting and for min. 2mb and max setting for what
you like, say your 768mb or greater. Windows will
increase from 2mb if it is nessecary or needs it. If you
have another hard disk you can install then setting your
virtual memory to use that disk. Much better performace.
Your primary disk will do its job and the slave disk will
do its job, not one disk trying to do it all.
