    I am running Windows 7 32 bit with 4GB RAM

    I am getting this error message fairly regularly (once or twice a day):

    Sometimes it points to MPDisplay (as above) but sometimes it points to MediaPortal.

    I got this screen grab after everything had been running for about 15 minutes, does it look normal, or do I have a memory leak issue somewhere?

    UPDATE: I have stumbled upon 'virtual memory' settings. I had paging file disabled, probably as part of an SSD set up guide that I had forgotten about. I have now switched it to: 'Automatically manage paging file size for all drives'. Maybe this will solve the problem.

    Thanks azzuro, interesting information!

    Ramdisk is a new concept to me, I'll look into it though.

    The SSD in my main HTPC, is approx 3 years old and some software called 'CrystalDiskInfo' reports it as being at 99% health.
    I'll keep an eye on it to see if re-enabling paging file has any significant effect.

    Mainly, I just would like the low memory warnings to go away, and of course for the PC to run at maximum speed and efficiency.

    Well it's been 5 days since I changed the virtual memory settings and I have had no more low memory warnings, so I think I'll say this is solved (y)
