this is basically what I was told by the verizon tech, when I got the virtual memory is low pop up.. he said I had more than enough for what I had on my computer ..

I followed the instructions you gave me yesterday but when I typed in misconfig I got a message saying invalid application. Am I supposed to put a C forward or backward slash before the misconfig?

msconfig - not misconfig
"Microsoft System Configuration Utility"

So wait, how does Windows handle vm compared to linux swap?
