Topic: Virtual Memory and Page Filing (Read 187 times)
There is no problem with your HDD. It is normal message from OS Windows related to the percentage of the available space.
Hey Everyone,
So I've expanded my rig from 5 cards to 6 cards recently and was having some trouble stabilizing 6 cards.
I was able to stabilize them after updating bios to Gen2, increasing virtual memory and updating cards to latest drivers.
I have a question about virtual memory.
After some research I decided to dedicate a partition on my hard drive to 72GB [(8 cards x 8gb) + 8gb ram] for virtual memory only.
After just one day of mining, i received a warning that my dedicated partition is running low on memory.
Is this ok?
I adjusted the system setting to clear page filing at shutdown, but when i reboot it still shows this partition pretty close to full.
Does virtual memory overwrite itself without impacting mining?
Even with this warning, it's been steady.
Any advice or input?

Or did I allocate the virtual memory partition just right where it's always going to be close to fully used up?
Thank you

No need to worry about Low space warning. since its a different partition, it wont effect OS or mining. If you want that warning to go off, just reduce virtual memory to 70GB and leave 2GB free space in that partition.
