How can you clear all your virtual memory?
Windows handles the virtual memory and there really isn't a way to clear it. Virtual memory is stored on the hard drive. It basically uses your hard drive as more RAM. You can't clear virtual memory any more than you can clear your RAM. It is possible to set the size of the virtual memory that Windows can create. This is done (if you have XP) through the control panel -> System -> Advanced -> Performance Settings -> Advanced -> Virtual Memory Change (other OSs will have it in roughly the same place). As you can see it isn't easy to find, because changing it can result in very bad things. If you make it too small, you system may crash when it runs out of physical RAM. Too large and you waste hard drive space. It's usually 1.5G, or smaller for older systems. Personally, I would just leave it alone. Windows only uses virtual memory as a last resort, and usually picks a reasonable size.
