Why would you want to? Virtual Memory settings are best left for Windows to sort out, to be honest with you.

And anyway, I doubt you'll see any benefit in increasing it - in fact, you'll probably land up slowing your computer down significantly, as more data is transferred between the HDD and memory.

He's right. Windows has a device already installed that will automatically increase your virtual memory for you. May I ask WHY you would want to increase your virtual memory? Is your computer slowing down or something????
