Windows does this automatically... and anyways hard drives are not as quick as RAM, so relying on this tip instead of buying RAM will impair performance.
VM / Swap file can help speed up the computer but not to the extend you would expect. However this would mean more activity on the hard drive and can have the opposite effect. To really speed up the machine get some cheap RAM.
Ideally Swap / VM should be placed on a different partition to the OS. Or you can take it to the next level with PF/VM, place it on a really fast secondary HDD.
Dont just change the value of the VM/PF as the video shows, this all depends on how much ram your mahine has.
I bought some cheap kingston ram, didnt cost much, cost me £70 = $100, arrangement 2GBx4. Works well, and these ram modules are half the size of full height rams.
OMG, basically reserving harddrive space for virtual ram, it's kinda pointless, do you even know why you are setting it for 3500 mb for ? Don't change it unless you know the reason just leave as default.
Using any I/O device (I think Vista can use USB flash also) to store memory pages actually hinders performance. The only reason to use a swap file is for running programmes that require more memory than the available physical RAM, because you wouldn't be able to use them otherwise.
what a BS post!! Virtual Memory wont make you play any games if you dont have the sufficient RAM and it doesn't make the computer faster....and I fail to see your point with this video. The RAM didnt change in your video. Its 2 gb both times you enter computer properties..LOL@CoolPsTuts!!
You should be a lot more detailed in why your setting things like you are, not just "click this" and "type this" and there. Explain why your clicking this and typing this. Or do you even know?
if u do this does ny of ur files get damaged? PM ME FAST PLEASE
