Limited virtual memory

[Tang]

I reinstalled my Windows XP home edition using the
installation cd that came with my Dell computer. Whenever
I login to my account the following error message appears:

Limited virtual memory
You system has no paging file or your paging file is too
small. To fix the problem,go to System in Control
Panel,click the Advanced tab,and under Performance. click
settings.On the advanced tab, click Change. Click custom
size and then type an initial or maximum paging file size.

I have followed these instructions and rebooted the
computer (several times) but the same error message
appears.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Open Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs and look for an entry for
the Intel Application Accelerator. If it is listed then select it and
click on Add/Remove to uninstall it. Reboot the computer and your
problem should be resolved.

And if the Intel Application Accelerator was installed then you should
go to www.intel.com and download the latest version of the Intel
Application Accelerator and install it.

If this does not apply to your situation, or if it does not resolve
the problem the see MVP Alex Nichol's article on virtual memory
management in Windows XP at http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpvm.htm
especially the section dealing with problems.

Good luck
