game trouble

January 3, 2009 9:58:52 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Ok so i got the game yesterday. And i put it on my laptop. So the first time through it takes forever to load up. Then when i start a tutorial or a game it gets about 65% loaded and then it shuts out saying comps virtual memory is low. Its says its upping the VM. how long does it take?

Well what are your system specs and how much virtual memory do you have currently?

OK, go to System Controls > System > Advanced > System performance > Advanced (I hope this is accurate, since I use a german WinXP version. A screenshot can be found here: drop.io/tqnpund)

Here you should be able to change the virtual memory settings. I have set 2.3GB manually on the partition where the game is installed. I think 1x or 2xRAM-size is good for virtual memory.

Hope that helps!
