    If it happens just once, then don't worry about. Windows has detected a problem and fixed (though you may want to reboot).

    But if it happens repeatedly, it might be that the settings aren't allowing Windows to make the necessary adjustment.

    First, make sure your C: drive isn't overly full. In Windows Explorer, right-click the drive icon and choose Properties. If the amount of free space is under about 10 percent, you'll need to free up some space. You can use the Disk Cleanup button right next to the free space indicator, or manually move some files to off-line storage, or uninstall unnecessary applications—whatever it takes to get more free space.

    If low drive space isn't the problem, the virtual-memory settings may be wrong. Right-click My Computer and choose Properties. Click the Advanced tab. Click the Settings button in the Performance panel. Click the Advanced tab in the Performance dialog. Click the Change button in the Virtual memory panel.

    Look for the System managed size option, select it if it isn't already selected, and then click OK, OK, OK. That should end the warnings.

        It means that your installation of Windoze is becoming senile and forgetting things.

            That's my tea, where I keep choking when I'm laughing at the antics on the site.

                virtual memory is low means basically that you dont have enough ram in your machine and windows is using your hard drive as tempory storage. The ram in your machine is like a temporary storage place for programs and stuff to run nothing is stored there and when your ram cant handle the amount of stuff that is going on windows allocates your hard drive as more ram (Virtual memory) you can change these settings in control panel as to how much you want windows to use.

                best way to solve the problem is to get more ram i bet you only have 1gb or ram or less.
