You receive a "Limited Virtual Memory. Your system is running without a properly sized paging file" message in Windows NT 4.0Article ID: 241143 - View products that this article applies to. This article was previously published under Q241143 SYMPTOMS
After you create a pagefile on an alternate volume and restart your computer, you may receive the following error message:
Limited Virtual Memory. Your system is running without a properly sized paging file. Please use the virtual memory option of the System applet in the Control Panel to create a paging file, or to increase the initial size of your paging file.
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if the system account does not have full control root permission.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, verify that the system account has full control to the root and is not a member of a denied access group. The system account should have full control over the partition (this is the default).
