    matrix revolutions: when using shrink i keep getting low virtual memory, shrink then closes without finishing the process. I have goosed the memory to it's max and still get the error. also get it on other computers. worked fine with just the main movie though. I would like the menus if possible. this is the first time i've encountered this problem.


    thanx.

    It is a sad day for decrypter. Thanks Shoey.

    how much RAM is in your computer.And you set the computer to system managed size?.I would consider checking the memory in you computer.Virtual memory is when you RAM cards are maxed and the computer has no choice but to go to the hard drive for virtual memory.

    I have 768mb of ram, system does not manage virtual memory and I have 3 gigs open and available for use to virtual memory. the other computer I used has a similar set-up with less ram (384) but 100gigs open to virtual memory.

    you stumped me, your system is fine in the memory area.I don't know if there is spyware or if you have running processes in the background of the computer.Try clicking Start, Run, and type msconfig. Click the start up tab and uncheck any running apps that you don't want to run in the background.I hope that helps.Restart the system.This is a good app to use www.ccleaner.com cleans cookies and registy settings.
