Recently I've been getting "virtual memory is low" problems along with other minor things. Anyway, it occurs when my computer really isn't running that many programs (2 web browsers, 2 messengers, and maybe iTunes).

I'm not sure how to ask this, but basically I'm trying to clean up my computer, maybe make it run faster (if that's possible). Are there programs that can help me with this? If so, where can I find them/what are they called?

Thanks guys!

You can find them in windows lol. Disk defrag, system cleanup etc. They're all in the start menu in system tools. You can also manually increase your page file size to solve the problem.

Check your Task Manager for processes running when you get errors and if nothing is abnormal than it's a hardware thing. (You simply don't have enough hardware to power what you want to do all at once).

A good program I use is called Crap Cleaner or "CCleaner". There's tons of free resources online that show you how to speed things up by making Systematic changes, but those have the ability to make things less than optimal for you as well.

For real time RAM recovery, dunno how much related it is to virtual memory try Memturbo(one I use) or CachemanXP.

Can't find it yourself just ask for a link.

I second CCleaner, cleans up literally everything. Then go ahead and run defragger.

CCleaner is recommended as mentioned above, and try disk cleanup too.

use window install clean up
or upgrade your ram if its still slow

Use foobar instead of iTunes, because iTunes uses up so much ram and it's pure malware in my opinion.

Also what kind of messengers are you using? I'm guessing something along the lines of AIM/YIM/MSN, you could look for some alternatives to those as well such as Trillian/Pidgin/Miranda etc.

You can go to the NeoBoards for that. Don't know about the lens flare though.
