Hi,

First, this isn't a chat room and using chat lingo is not likely to garner
you many responses.

Two different problems.

a) It is normal to not have much free memory, this is by design of the OS.
It is supposed to use all the physical memory it can, that which is not in
active use is often used for caching. Free memory is wasted memory. New
processes initiated simply push out lower priority ones (usually to pages)
until they are needed again.

b) Without error codes and details, any answer you get on the blue screen
would be a wild guess. Please provide exact details if you want any real
assistance.

Leave the page file alone. Period. Those that wrote the OS know far more
than you or I about memory management.

In addition to what Rick already said, you can free up disk space by
starting "Disk Cleanup", going into the Advanced options and deleting all
restore points and shadow copies (assuming of course that you don't need
them). You may be surprised how much of the hard disk is being used for
that purpose. Regarding your video card, depending on how much dedicated
video ram it has it may not need to share system memory. Post your specs.

I would take a look at your startup programs and disable any startup entries
that are not needed.
The page file is best managed by the O/S so dont tweak it, but if you have a
fast second hard drive with a free partition at the beginning of the drive
you could let vista use that as well.
2gb of ram is plenty for vista under normal use.
Check your event viewer and problem reports and solutions for problems
regarding the blue screening it may show where the problem lies.
Regards.
Graham....
