Just yesterday we received a 'virtual memory minimun to low' error for the first time. I increased the memory paging file to no avail. Rebooting regularly has not helped though. The computer is eight months old with 1.3GHz / 60GB / 128MB. Thanks!

Since no one else has mentioned it, 128MB is not much memory. If it were my machine, I would at the very least, double that amount. I'm running 384mb of PC133 on my P3@933mhz with Win98se. It seldom, if ever, has to access the swap file. I use Photoshop regularly and am going on 2 years with my current OS installation.

Good advice. If I read the post correctly, you (Quilla) were using this machine to run CAD? If so, double the RAM, set the page file to 110% of installed memory, set page file to separate disc volume from OS (not just different disc partition!). Also, MS is famous for cryptic error messages. It's possible that your low virtual memory message is related to the log file size for the Event Viewer Application or System logs. Default log size is 512kb - some applications demand that you increase to 1024kb. The Event Viewer is a good place to look for other problems as well.
Good luck Quilla,
