OK, I wonder if anyone can help a muppet in distress. I've had this problem on my PC in work for a while now, I think it started when I tried to network my collegue's computer up to mine so we could play Unreal. Anyway, everytime I start the PC up it says I have Paging File Size error, the page size is too small. It tells me to go into My Computer, Advanced, Performance Options, and to increase the size. The minimum is 2mb, the recommended is 382. Ok, so I put in 'IB' 382, and 'MB' 2000. This has not worked. I'm trying to play GTA3 and the fucking thing keeps coming up with a memory problem box and sending my PC tits up....
CAN YOU HELP? :(

OK print screen didn't work...
LIMITED VIRTUAL MEMORY
Your system has no paging file, or the paging file is too small.
1. Right click my computer, click properties and then advanced options.
2. Click the performance options button and click the change button. Under Drive (Volume Size), select the drive you want.
3. To create a new paging size, click the Initial Size (IB) box, and type a paging size.
-OR-
To increase the paging file size, click the Maximum size (MB) and then type a larger size.
Click set, then ok.
This is what it says when I go into Performance Options:
Windows created a temporary paging file on your computer because of a problem that occured with your paging file configuration when you started your computer. The total paging file size for all disk drives may be somewhat larger than the file size you specified.
I also get this error message afterwards:
VIRTUAL MEMORY MINIMUM TOO LOW
Your system is low on virtual memory. Windows in increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file. During this process, requests for some applications may be denied. For more information, see Help.

Don't think I can do that...
See, when I go in, it always say it's allocated 20mb, even though I've set it higher. Look:

Just set the minimum and maximum to 0.
You need admin rights to change it.
