There should be a way of resetting your BIOS. This will put it back to factory (default) settings. This should be in your manual. Normally there is a jumper on the motherboard you have to set.

Whats your motherboard make and model?

How much real memory do you have? If you've Win2000 or XP, it should handle it automatically. Are you letting it handle itself?
What game / program are you trying to run?

System properties;advance;performance settings;advanced. Alter it under the change tab. :shrug:

It just came up with a balloon saying virtual memory is running low :(

but it's currently allocated 507mb :shrug:

not necessarily as my setting is custom with an initial value of 150% of physical memory (or mebbe thats 50% and the value is sum total) and max of 200% and I didn't set that it was set by the xp installation.
Check the value in systems properties etc etc as mentioned by Toad
