    Have you done a scandisk on it yet?

    How big is your pagefile when you run out of space?

    And have you run malwarebytes/eset on it yet?

    Under Windows XP (your OS may vary) you go to:
    Control Panel ->
    System ->
    Advanced ->
    Performance ->
    Advanced ->
    Virtual memory
