Virtual Memory error

by ar73m15 . Updated 17 years, 7 months ago

I work in a corporate environment. One of my users receives the following error each time he reboots:

“There is not enough memory available for this task.
Quit one or more programs to increase available memory,
and try again.(2)”

I logged in under my ID to see if it was profile related, and received the same error. It does not affect the performance of his machine. His specs are below:

– ThinkCentre M57 6072-A5U
– Intel? Core 2 Duo Processor E6550 1GB
– 80GB 7200RPM S-ATA HDD
– no diskette drive
– PCI/PCIe Small Form Factor (2×3)
– Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100
– 48x32x48x16x CD-RW/DVD combo
– Intel Gigabit Ethernet,

The machine came bundled with Vista, but I imaged over it with XP SP2. His startup program list is smaller than some users I have seen (msconfig) and altering it does not resolve the issue. He did have WMI & SMS errors to begin with, but these were repaired successfully.
