maybe your ram is failing as i said in the pc help topic. you could try taking it out. giving them a god clean then putting them back in although now after reading this topic it might not be failing ram. worth a try though.

I think ive found the problem...
It only happens when im running Azureus... which includes the "javaw.exe" process. That takes up like 120mb or Ram
But still... ive had azureus for years and never had this problem. Do you think it could be a memory leak?
I recently installed Norton AntiVirus 2006, do you think that had an effect? (but i did have Norton AV 2004 previously).
I have no idea what it is... cos i had azureus running with nothing else, had about 200mb of ram left and my computer jus crashed again

my computer gives the low virtual ram message
Despite what others say, virtual RAM has nothing to do with the physical RAM installed on your PC.
Virtual RAM is stored on a file xxxxxxx.swp also called "swap file".
When physical RAM available gets down to a certain level, windows automatically moves currently unused data from the physical RAM to the virtual RAM file, freeing up that space.
As you said, java is eating up memory (128MB is not normal), don't know if it's an Azureus problem or your java installation problem.
Try updating both.
As for virtual RAM, i always do the following:
- Suppose i have 1GB RAM.
- Create an empty partition of 2.5GB.
- Set the virtual RAM to use that whole partition. (typically you should set your virtual ram file to 2.5x your physical memory)
That way, the swap file doesn't get fragmented since it's the only file in that drive (don't use it for any other purpose, or else this work won't give you any benefit)
