I had 16GB installed and the pagefile disabled and never had any problems. I've currently borrowed 8GB to run my backup PC, so I've enabled the pagefile on C, set to System Managed and it currently shows Recommended 4593MB, Currently Allocated 3072MB. There's another 11GB free on C: at the moment.
However, I'm occasionally getting popups from Windows telling me that it's low on memory and I should close this or that program and sometimes I've had Chrome crash completely on me due to this. HwInfo64 shows me that currently there's 10388MB Virtual Memory committed and 814MB Available, 6757MB Physical Memory Used and 1366MB Available.
Surely Windows should be expanding the Pagefile if it's running out of Physical Memory and shouldn't be prompting me to close programs or crashing them should it?
