Did all that per the video sent by Susaz and it made matters worse. Things started to freeze up. Can I just backtrack and undo it?
So sorry to be highjacking this thread for this stuff folks
Not hijacking... if your puter is ailing, you can’t acquire new shinies. Someone on here will be able to get you back on track. Lots of smarts and gold hearts in this crowd

@chanelvaps Just go back into the computer properties where you changed the virtual memory size.
In order to change it, there should have been a box you had to uncheck called'automatic paging file size'.
Place a checkmark back in the box.

That's it. It's undone.

morning all.
too tired to grumble about FT and its ETA slippage but starting to feel that the DB and me were never meant to be (also the 2nd intake that's intended to be paired with it just zapped to the 29th from the 18th).
i run windows at work because i have to. upgraded to 12GB of RAM and an SSD with my own hardware. there is no substitute for real memory. readyboost is just another page file and if the machine is already elderly USB transfer rates won't be of much benefit.

I agree, but without knowing the specs of the machine I couldn't recommend anything else.
All I know about the machine is that they tried increasing the page cache size and id didn't work and wanted to change it back.
I don't even know what was going on that made someone suggest increasing the virtual memory size allocation.

Gains from using ReadyBoost are actually seen mostly in elderly machines with minimal RAM.
In a machine with a decent processor and 4GB of RAM or more won't benefit.
Most machines with less may see a gain, but you won't notice it.
Some very elderly machines will see a slight benefit.

Besides, it's plug in, click mouse, done.
If it doesn't help, unplug it.

I've seen that, incredible. Don't have a decent jig saw though, blade throw too short.


I havent done it in a while, but on the big automotive parts ultrasonic cleaners, just put your small (er) bottles, and turn the cleaner on...

this morning was mostly spent winding fused stapled ni80 coils for mechs (along with some SS aliens). i might sell them...i probably won't at the moment. these are coming out at 0.2 and the ramp up is fast :evil:

Probably a quiche lorraine, been a few years since I had a good one. Closely followed by a flan patissier
