Pool memory.

I have a problem here. I dont know if I am doing it wrong or something. But every time I enter a game in TF2, I get a message the pops up telling me my Pool memory is low. So I went into the Regedit and changed the settings, and now I rebooted my computer, and I load up TF2 again, it gives me a message saying failed to create D3D device. WHAT DID I DO?

What you did was mess around in the registry. That's typically a very bad idea unless you know exactly what you're doing.

I'd try reinstalling TF2 to fix your registry changes, and then addressing the initial problem.

How much RAM do you have? Actually, post all of your PC's specs.

Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3, v.3311 (2600.xpsp.080212-0005)


My friend told me to edit the registry any way. I may have done it wrong in a way.

It very well may be a RAM issue. Try stopping ALL non-essential background programs before you play TF2, or picking up another 1GB stick of RAM.

RAM is extremely cheap, so picking up another gig wouldn't hurt at all. I got 2 gigs for fifty dollars.

Thats what I'll probably end up doing anyway.
