"Insufficient system resources" messages

Several times I have either received the above message - or "insufficient
page file space". I've very rarely seen this in the past with XP which
makes me think something's wrong. When I open up the task manager I get:

Physical Memory (K)
Total 523760
Available 185000
System cache 255084

Kernel memory 44396
Paged 30362
Nonpaged 14124

The Page File Usage History is running fairly constantly just over 50% When
I open MS Word and Exploror the Page File Usage History runs at about 60%

At the moment I'm running ESET Smart Security, Outlook Express and Firefox.

Are these figures appropriate? What is the best way of debugging these
problems?

Re: "Insufficient system resources" messages

I've got a Gigabyte K8 Triton GA-K8N mobo.

Don't know what OpenVMS on the link has to do with it.

Robert.
