Recommended Virtual Memory for 8GB of ram WIN 7

[romeplayer]

Yesterday i have to change my virtual memory and i set it to ( initial size 2000 mb , maximum size 40000 mb )
I dont know much about virtual memory and i think that i set it pretty much wrong.
So if anyone can help, thanks

personally I set is to a constant size, it's suggested 1.5x real memory, but that's an old recommendation imo. 8GB min and max will be fine.

The recommendation is 1X to 2X the RAM you have. Set it to a fixed size (min and max the same). With 8GB RAM, I would probably go for the 1X size and set it to min = 8192 and max = 8192

If you are using much pagefile memory then your computer is going to be REALLY slow anyway.
