Right click on My Computer. Choose "Properties". How much RAM does it
say you have?

Your question really has nothing to do with Windows Update, which is the
subject of this group, I would suggest reposting to one of the Windows 2k
groups.

How does your problem pertain to Windows Update?

Try posting here instead: microsoft.public.windows2000.general

Yes, if you're running XP, you need to at least double your RAM,
preferably four times as much. If you don't know how to add RAM, take
your computer to a computer shop and have them install it.

You look for a newsgroup with a name such as "general" or "basic".
The message that you received usually means that your pagefile is too small.
You will need to ask in one of these newsgroups about how to make the
pagefile bigger.
