What happens if you have no virtual memory?

If you are using a modern version of Windows (Windows 95 or latter) you will be using virtual memory.

Applications access virtual memory exclusively, no exceptions, ever. You can not disable virtual memory. You can disable the pagefile (not recommended) but this will not disable virtual memory. The system provides a virtual environment to processes that is completely independent of how much RAM is in the system. This is an advanced system that provides many important advantages to applications and users.
