UOS is silly that way. If I ever run into the problem, I close chrome and make sure I don't have any huge things in the background running. Then again, I'm only on 4gb of RAM.

It looks like you need more virtual memory buddy. Goto "Computer" > System Properties > Advanced System Settings. You will see this dialog box. Click "Advanced".

Then click the "Settings..." icon under the Performance tab. You will then see this dialog screen:

Click the "Advanced" tab. Under Virtual Memory click "Change..."

This will bring up a dialog of various hard drives that you can configure to hold your Page File. A good rule of thumb is to at least have a page file that is 1.5 times the size of your RAM installed in your computer. For instance, if you have 4GB of RAM, you would do 4,096MB * 1.5 = 6,144MB. Remember, 1024MB = 1GB. Or ((1024 * 4) * 1.5) = 6,144MB.

Another example. If you had 16GB of RAM, you would do ((1024*16) * 1.5) = 24,576MB. (Which mine is set at). Because I have multiple hard drives, I have a hard drive that is dedicated to a page file. Especially in laptops where there is usually only one hard drive, this is not the norm. Considering a page file is 1.5 times the size of your onboard RAM, this file can take up a considerable amount of space.

Unfortunately with page files, they are a necessary evil. You have to sacrifice hard drive space in order for your applications to run smoothly. Hopefully this tutorial helps!

I'm sorry for resurrecting this, but I've reinstalled UO on my new system which is now on the 64bit version of Win 7 and I'm running into this same issue.

I have 16 gigs of RAM, and I've set my virtual memory to what you've suggested, but I'm still running into this error.

Is there any solution to this other than closing every single program running to utilize the first 4 gigs of RAM? Should I go back to Razor?
