  You need more RAM, although windows can emulate some RAM, its still determined by your RAM available. Another way to reduce RAM usage is to close all those unnecessary RAM eaters before playing. Like your AV, msn, and all that sh|t.

  Do you have at least 1 gb of Ram? If not, you should not be playing Fm at all.

  first go to my computer , then go to control panel
  double click on 'system'
  Click 'advanced' tab
  
  under 'performance' click the 'settings' button
  
  inside click 'advanced' tab
  
  under virtual memory press the 'change' button
  
  choose 'custom'
  
  initial(min) size you put lets say 200
  and
  maximum you put 1000
  
  press 'set' and then click 'ok'
  
  click 'ok' until the system properties close. Best if you restart immediately after that.
  
  now should be able to run
  
  And one thing, Virtual ram is inside your hard drive while Physical ram is your Ram sticks Don't be confused. Hope this helps

  Virtual ram is much slower than real ram. So it's better to upgrade the physical ram than just increasng the virtual ram.

  yah. But fifa manager requires about 786mb of virtual memory for file swap. Don't ask me y becos some of EA title simply sux(not including NFS series)
  Upgrade ram must make sure compatible if not money wasted because rams have become more expensive.

  increase the 1000 to maybe 1500. if still cannot your com cannot play fifa manager 07. Don't think buy new ram would help.

  You think you had it worse, i don't have enough ram to play nfs carbon, not enough video ram either, and don't even have a dvd drive to install the game to begin with.

  Here are some solutions, not guaranteed to work.
  
  1. Increase your virtual memory again. By default, your virtual memory is twice the size of your physical memory. Let's say you have 256MB of physical memory, the default virtual memory size would be 512MB. Increase this to 1024 or higher. One thing though, you will run out of hard disk space as virtual memory uses your hard disk.
  
  2. Increase your physical memory size. Before doing so, make some checks. Download CPU-Z and save it somewhere convenient. Unzip it and run CPU-Z. Once it has finished detecting your system specs, click on the Memory tab. It shows the type of RAM you are using. Go Sim Lim or any other tech shops to buy another stick of RAM (from CPU-Z results).
  
  3. Downgrade your Football Manager to a suitable version or you upgrade your PC.
