Recommended Posts

Adjust your page file size:

 

You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from completing this procedure.

 

1.

Open System in Control Panel.

2.

On the Advanced tab, under Performance, click Settings.

3.

On the Advanced tab, under Virtual memory, click Change.

4.

Under Drive [Volume Label], click the drive that contains the paging file you want to change.

5.

Under Paging file size for selected drive, click Custom size, and type a new paging file size in megabytes in the Initial size (MB) or Maximum size (MB) box, and then click Set.

If you decrease the size of either the initial or maximum page file settings, you must restart your computer to see the effects of those changes. Increases typically do not require a restart.

 

Regards,

Sorry it took me a bit was at work, lets disable some of your services to free up memory. In addition run a disk defragmentation.

 

Disable Unnecessary Services in Windows

  1. Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services
  2. If prompted by UAC, then click on Yes
  3. Sort by name
  4. Then one by one, take the items listed to disable, and if they are running then stop them, then right-click > properties (for each one in turn) and set them to "disabled".
  5. If One of the services doesn't like to be stopped, the "media serial number" so after stopping it, wait a bit and then hit cancel, it will stop, then go and disable it.
  6. When you are all done, exit from the administrative tools and reboot your system.

 

Stop and Disable these Windows Services

The services listed below may safely be disabled on your Windows system if you are not using them.

  • Messenger
