Hello all,
I have a few questions:
1.) Can I use one Hard Drive and put it in another computer and have it work?
2.) What makes a computer run faster?
3.) What will help fix the pop-up problem saying "VIRTUAL MEMORY LOW"?
4.) If a computer gets a virus, what program (preferably Freeware) can delete it?
Thank you for anyone who will help!
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays,
Graham

Graham, for the Virtual Memory Low, I think it's b/c you don't have enough RAM. As far as an anti virus, check out either Norton or Malware Bytes. I know Norton is paywar, but I'm not sure about the other. For you're computer to run faster, that has alot to do w/ proccessor speed, the number of cores, the amount of RAM, etc.

There is also Microsoft Security essentials. It is free and it has the latest protection against Spyware, Malware, and of course Virus detection. Can you be more specific on the type of computer you have? Processor, Operating system (i.e. Xp, Vista, Win 7) memory installed, hard drive space etc.

Your best bet is just to buy a brand new computer, that is beyond old. I don't remember the last time I saw or used a processor that was only in Megahertz.

I had problems running FSX on a P4 3ghz with 4 gb of memory. I am sorry but I do have to agree with Nick. Once you have an upgraded system there will be plenty of people at DVA that would be willing to assist you. The PC you have now does not have enough hard drive space, ram, and processor ability. Merry Christmas and have a safe and prosperous New Year.
