Virtual Memory?

[Keikan]

You people keep dissing people with old hardware you can still use a 4gb hard drive for stuff and install win xp. I don't see a problem sure it will be slow but it's possible

[clocker]

You think I was dissing him? Or his hardware?
I don't.

I'm sure that XP can be run on just about anything.
The question is why?

Mightn't 2000Pro be more suitable and run faster?

You can increase the size of the page file ("virtual memory") by going to Control Panel>System>Advanced>Performance settings>Advanced>Virtual memory>change.

the only helpful thing, in all these replies.

I disagree.
My suggestion will solve his immediate problem not the root cause.

But this is probably a SoftwareWorld question anyway.

It can also be solved with hardware like by adding more RAM.

agree

but this type of thing always happens here (& swworld too)
someone asks a question:

question: how can I make all my folders a slightly darker shade of bright orange?

reply1: you use folders? you should just save everything to your desktop, it&#39;s easier to find.

reply2: what type of monitor do you have? does your living room have sufficient lighting as to not cause eye strain? if not, you should reinstall windows.

reply3: you should make them blue instead, then they&#39;ll match the color of your taskbar. Windows XP r0x0rz ur b0x0rz&#33;

reply4: no, linux is better. quack, quack.

reply4: go to start > control panel > fuck about with colors > check the box that says "make all my folders some wild-ass color" > bright orange.
