As of last weekend I noticed a change in my Chrome browser which often coincides with some new hassle to my laptop. Using Windows 7 I believe 4 Gb or RAM, never had a problem since I got this and now I cant open more than a few browser windows or do anything else if Chrome is running, in fact anything gives me error warnings. It starts with the "Windows created a temporary paging file on your computer because of a problem that occurred with your paging file configuration". It will go on to a pop up window for performance options. When trying to manually allocate more usable memory it wont set it and I get the error message - SystemPropertiesPerformance.exe is corrupt. The file or directory \pagefile.sys is corrupt and unreadable.
I have tried to research this problem and there have been a number of solutions I have seen which seem reasonable but I have been asking around before attempting anything. The easiest would be to simply replace the SystemPP.exe file if it is the problem as one site suggested. I have held off running a chkdsk as I had a problem last year and I think it was that which took almost 4 days to finish running and if I can avoid that ordeal...
Any suggestions? I am hoping this is a simple fix
