Every day, my computer says I have low disc space memory. All I've been doing is surfing the web and watching Youtube videos, for example. Do I have a worm? I now went out & bought Kaspersky Internet Security Suite, but it doesn't have a category for ''worm'' detection and I've run scans by MS Windows, but nothing was detected. What is the problem with my computer's disc space memory -- is it a worm eating it up or not -- and how can I fix it? Thanks for your help on this!

If you are getting a message indicating low disk space, then clean out the internet termporary files. Once the disk space is exhausted, you will have difficulty in running the system. Every time you visit a website ir do just about anything, small files are created. These are temporary files and can be removed. Try the following:

1) Empty the recycle bin
2) under options for the internet explorer, clean up the temporary files.

  • Hi, what you need to do is "Add" more Memory to the "Virtual Memory, the memory is used to "Cache" for file indexing, Paging of files... it handles for all running Processes, Networking, and Services. 1. Go to and open the Control Panel, select the Performance and Tools, category, next open the "Adjust Visual Effects." 2. In the "Performance Options, click on the Advanced button, there will be Virtual memory area, that show how much memory is "allocated" towards "paging file..." (RAM) on the Harddisk; click on the "Change button, in the window (view) the "Recommended amount, in (MB)." 3. If the Memory is less< than the recommended Total for paging, change it. Clear the # number in the Intial size box, type the recommended amount or > Higher, example: (Recommended = 4219) type ( 4219 or 4519 or higher), next click on the "Set button, click OK." You may need to restart the computer. "If the solution helped, rating it is appreciated, thanks"

I can't view videos I receive on Facebook on my laptop for the last couple months. What is the problem and how do I fix it? Thank you.

First, I'm not a Facebook representative.
* Contact your laptop MFR for service and support.
*** The following is for information only ***
* I'm guessing you could play FB vids before and have not upgraded any apps (FaceBook) recently..
* I've found my vids on You Tube; the audio would not sync up. (Plays audio but the vid lags behind like watching Kung Fu English dub movies).
* The recommended fix was to clear the "cache" storage.
* Download latest version of the app (or program)
* Upgrade to the next (premium?) level.
* Perform a "Hard Reset" (on cell phones)
* For laptops/desk tops; perform a complete shut down to allow windows to clean up temp files and archive.
* Check your storage; "free space" as it may be too low to function correctly with high volume data files.
* Move or delete older programs and archive old data to free up "working space" in memory. This is the internal RAM of the CPU and not the Hard Disk Drive HDD (some newer CPU's use Flash drives now)
* Basic idea is to perform maintenance on your computer to free up memory and clean up useless files and data.
* Chrome FB Vids; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SG-7tnb07S4
* Blurry vids; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNS4nTWtIN4
* Slow internet; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zD_qWgibaw
* Automatic play; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAPxE5u1wBM

I use my Sony VPC-EB3QFX notebook mainly for playing games like Crysis 2, The Sims 3, Quake 4, etc. I do also use my notebook for browsing the web, going onto forums, watching YouTube, going to Facebook,...

Yes as long as you can use your laptop without a problem..But if you will continue adding games application in your laptop there is a tendency it may perform slow because of low memory, Games software especially games with a high resolution graphics eat a lot of memory and hard disk space so if you have a lot of game like this 4 gb will be not enough in the future..Hope it will help you

I would download and run the registry utility from iobit.com
It is freeware and works then run CHKDSK/F.

Within iobits programme are useful utilities that empty the temporary directories and can remove unwanted old files.

Low memory disk

If you have low memory disk, try to check your cpacity. To do this, click Start > then right click Computer then click Properties. You will check your RAM if it is 512MB, 1GB or 2GB. Then click Start then click My Computer. Then right click Local Disc C then click Properties. You will check the total memory space available. If the free space is very little already, try to remove unnecessary programs such as games... Restrart the pc and check if your space is still low...

To enjoy YT videos you need a high speed internet like broadband or DSL.

Dial up and other low speed are for other surfing task on the web.

Why does my laptop show low disc space?

Hello

The low disc space message refers to the amount of free disc space on your c drive. The c drive is the drive on which your windows is installed, thus yu need to delete some games or not neccesary files to free up some space on your drive. Hope this can help you.

Kind regards
Andrea
