Could anyone help me with this? I am running some memory intensive computations with python on XP, and was running out of memory when the pagefile got full (~2g)...so I reset the windows pagefile to 4g (maximum allowed). My program still crashes at 2g (according to the task manager). Do I need to inform python that the pagefile has a new size? How do I check that python is utilizing the full pagefile?

Hello, I've been reading about this topic, and I've gotten myself more confused, not less. We have a single-processor license SQL Server Standard 2005 (xeon 2.8 ghz) with 4 GB RAM in Windows Server 2003 SP1 Standard. I turned on the /3GB switch in boot.ini but not PAE or AWE, would it be good to have either one?? servers or databases than we presently have.

Hello all... I'm having a problem moving my swap file to a drive other than my primary drive. Right now I have a 3+ gig pagefile.sys that resides on my C drive. When I try to reconfigure (through the advanced options) it doesn't change. Here's the weird part... it shows that it is configured to have the page file on the other hard drive, but the actual file still resides on C and I can't delete it (all of this is after a reboot). I even...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
