I used my virtual memory to mimic 6 gigs of ram on my computer. PS opens a lot faster now . I only have 312 mb of actual ram tho.
I just did this: •Right clicked My computer •Clicked Properties •Advanced tab •Performance> Settings •Advanced tab again and then I changed my virtual memory to like 6000 on custom size settings. Its a huge difference compared to my 312 mb ram. All tho its taking up 6 gigs of my hdd, ill just have to watch how much stuff i have so i dont go low on memory (I have a 20 GB hdd... old computer)
I used 4GB of physical memory to... HAHA YOU LOOSE I just did this: •Bought memory, it's around $15 a GB right now •turned off my system •opened the case •inserted memory and then I adjusted my BIOS settings to accommodate for the increase load on the memory controller, though usually you don't' have to do that FYI I more or less disable virtual memory(I leave 512mb simply because photoshop is a PITA because it assumes you have to little RAM)... it slows my system down...
