For your computer to work quickly and without interruption, it must have enough RAM. It can be increased at any time using special utilities and RAM sticks.
Necessary
- - computer;
- - operating system;
- - additional RAM strips.
Instructions
Step 1
Those who work at a computer every day are often faced with the fact that their working tool often freezes for a while, or even simply turns off. But sometimes, sitting at the monitor, you want not only to carry out work operations, but also to play your favorite toys. This problem arises due to the lack of RAM on the computer.
Step 2
Often it manifests itself in those moments when the computer is just starting up. Together with the necessary programs, not so important ones are launched, which take up part of the memory. The system starts literally torn between them, deciding who to give priority. As a result, the entire computer freezes. You can solve this problem by removing all lower priority programs from the menu, which is responsible for autorun.
Step 3
Another reason for a lack of RAM can be insufficient physical or virtual memory. To solve the problem, you must first understand which one is more loaded. Check the amount of virtual memory in the download file using the toolbar. Set its size so that it is twice the physical memory. After this operation, the computer will need to reboot.
Step 4
Check the physical memory size in the following way: "My Computer" - "Properties". If you see that the physical memory exceeds 4 gigabytes, then the best solution would be to install a new, 64-bit operating system. If the memory limit is less, then it is best to buy an additional memory strip in the store and use it to increase disk space.
Step 5
Most often in computer stores you can find such types of RAM as DDR2 and DDR3, since they are used to create modern computers. It can be installed using special utilities, and then you need to install the purchased memory sticks.
