    ok so i'm trying to download this new game called sword of the new world and it's a reaaaaaaaaallllly big game, it has 6 700mb files, but i'm saving these files to my 500gb external hardrive that has at least 450g left in it but whenever i try to download the files it always gives me an error message saying that windows virtual memory minimum is too low... is this about my hard drive on my computer? cuz i know its not for my external hard drive and possible is there a way to make it not give me this? cuz i'm really confused i got this external hard drive so i wouldn't really have to worry about space and yet i can't download like 5 gigs of stuff to it... oh and i'm using flashget i don't know if that has anything to do with it or not...

    "Windows virtual memory" refers to how much memory you have left over to carry out various tasks on your system. A few things you could try:

    1) Download the files to your computer, then manually transfer them to your flash drive.

    2) Use something other than FlashGet. Maybe there's a memory leak?

    3) Upgrade your memory.
