Tópico: 911. At a gig. Help please - Page: 1

Esta parte del tópico es antigua y puede contener información incorrecta para la nueva versión.

When I load a file in eigther deck. I get the following message

Decompressing this file in memory would require 58mb of contiguous memory. Your system has only a total of 227mb available free segments (out of the 2047mb), and they are too fragmented to hold a contiguous buffer.
Therefore the song will be loaded on the fly from the drive (and the full waveform preview will not be available. )


Happens with mp3s. And vids. Help please.
Working a gig

Don't think there is much you can do now, other than put a thumb drive in and get more disc space. Sounds like you need to run a disc clean up and defrag. If you do have a jumpdrive or USB drive you could try using it for more space.
 
Damn. Op is on a New hard drive. I might not of defra after instaling everything. If I put a long long mix on will it mess with vdj if I defra the c drive. 50gigs
 
This has nothing to do with 'disk' space. Read the message again - it has to do with 'contiguous memory space'.

Your system only has 2Gb of memory - (out of the 2047Mb) - and you are trying to load a file larger than 58Mb in size.

Were you trying to load a track that was longer than 30+ minutes in length?
 
No. Never h this problem before. I installed a new 2tb drive. Op in on it. C drive has 50gigs. Same as it was before. Could my ram be going bad
 
This system has worked fine for over a year. Onlything that's changed is the new install of the op and the drive
 
From what I see, you running out of RAM. So, I'd say if others software are running other than VDJ, close them to free from Ram.

my 2 cents

Thank u. I have two sticks of memory equaling 4 gigs. There is nothing running in the background. I will double check again when I get home. Keep in mind please. I built my pc and can figure putost issue but. I'm not a reck wiz al all. Like I said. The op was reinstalled onto a new hardrive. Instalation seemed to go smoothly as it did in the past. I still have the other hardrive I took out and will plug it back in to test if it has the same issue. Thank u again and I will post the pc's specks later
 
Hi mate.
Might be worth opening the old Task Manager and seeing if you missed anything thats running and eating up memory in the background. If you are running a new Operating system it might be running something you don't expect or haven't accounted for when you set everything up.

The message your getting is refering to 2gig of memory. It might be worth re-seating the memory cards to make shure they are contacting correctly in the sockets. You could also take a note of what the memory size is shown as on the initial boot up.

Good luck

OK guys.. I put the other hard drive in that has the op on it that i just replaced.... it works with no problems,, its not a hardware issue.. SO.. what should i be looking for in this OP that might be different???

ooops sorry about that.

Vista home 32bit...... on the old drive and new..
 
new hard drive and OP
 
what is so different with this install
 
vista home is not compatible with 4 Gb and as you see in your screenshot it only shows 3.25GB ram so anything more then that is a wast of ram(money) because the os can't see it or use it. the problem seams to be that you system actualy only reads 2 gb of the ram

just for the record,, this is from the origonal drive OP
 
Try an OLDER video driver. Im still runnin on like 8.xx on Vista Home Premium.
 
Vista Home does support more than 3.25GB of memory - providing you are running a 64-bit version. This is true for Windows XP and 7 also. Changing your drivers will not help with the problem and is not recommended if your system is performing well already. The issue is as cstoll described. I have made a diagram which I hope helps (the numbers are for demonstration purposes):




Edit: On looking at this problem a second time, perhaps drivers are an issue here. Virtual DJ is only seeing 2 GB of memory. I wonder why that is?
