You are right about needing more memory, 1GB is needed to run Home Premium or
better. To get in and check your virtual memory (page file) size go to the
control panel > System Maintenance > Performance Information and Tools >
Performance Options and click on the advanced tab. I would either let Windows
manage the page file size or if you want to set it your self make sure you
have 1.5 times the size of the RAM in your computer.
