DirectX and Windows 2000

Recommended Posts

I have installed DirectX 8.0a on my laptop running Windows 2000.

 

I am running an application that requires DirectX. When run, it actually runs Direct Player 6.0 but a message saying "This program needs at least 3MB of virtual memory to run." appears. I've checked my virtual memory and it is actually set to 2GB.

 

What should I do?

 

Thanks.

Well, if you have a laptop that runs a web server, an application server, a database server, the IBM Visual Age for JAVA IDE, you would also need that much virtual memory.

 

Haven't crashed eversince. Besides, that was how Dell setup my laptop.

 

In any case, I got it to work already by setting the minimum value to 1 GB instead.

How/where do you set the minimum value? I saw mine was set to 2, but didn't see an option to change the minimum.
;(
Thanks!
