my computer randomly, without notice, shuts down programs that are currently running. it gives me an error message saying that the paging file is too small for this operation meanwhile.. i have more than 3/4 of my memory left on my C: drive.. it doesnt make any sence.. no matter how big i make the paging file, i still get that popup

How much RAM do you have on your system and what is your pagefile size currently set as?

umm the paging file is currently set as
Initial:369MB
Maximum: 3000MB

and my RAM has a capacity of 256MB

Maybe you have a virus? post in the malware forum

FYI, i was told once to set the initial and maximum sizes to the same amount.
this then avoids the pagefile sizes needing to adjust/grow.
