If you don't have very memory intensive applications which you perform in windows xp while running sage vm with 1 GB you should be fine. The best split between VM and host system depends on the actual load (i.e. what calculation you do in sage and what applications run in parallel in windows). > I also don't know how to change the base memory in Virtualbox ? if you start the Virtual Box GUI on the right side is the Category System.

Quote: Requirements ============ This can be used on any operating system that supports the free VirtualBox player, for example Microsoft Windows. Your computer must have at least 2.5 GB (!) of free disk space and at least 512 MB of RAM. So for normal sage operation you should be fine to set the VM to 512 MB best emil -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
