Default low memory

In ,
Colin Barnhorst typed:

Please describe you computer (brand, laptop or desktop, XP Home
or XP
Pro, video card if any, etc.).

It sounds like you have an onboard video adaptor that is
sharing your
ram. Your overall ram sounds like 128mb (minus 16mb shared ram
for
video). You can increase your pagefile size, but the best
solution
is to increase ram to 256mb or more.



Yes, performance with only 112MB of RAM is always going to be
very poor. Even another 128 MB (which would give him a net total
of 240MB, after subtracting the sharded video memory) may not be
enough, depending on what apps he runs.
