Low Memory Gaming

[DagonetN7]

Hi guys,
Ive encountered a problem that ive never seen before to do with low memory.

When i play Mass effect 3 online, after a couple of hours the game crashes and a sign come up on the desktop saying "you running low on memory". I'm no where near my limit, not even half.

Any clues? or maybe someway to allocate more memory for this game?

Many Thanks.
Paul.

Hi DagonetN7
Is it low memory , or low virtual memory ?

Try disabling your page files.

Warning, please do research before messing with the page files as it could cause other problems.

Christ that was a quick reply, it's virtual memory mate. Although it does not tell me that, just seems the most logical.
Also just looked when running the game, it uses just under 600 in memory which takes it up for 62% all together.

600 MB and that is 62% of your total? If you have a gig of RAM, you'd want to double that for gaming at least. Get more RAM for the system.
