Anyone getting Out of Memory error in Windows 8.1?

Same error here, I just updated. And I regret it.

I got that message once when I was still on Windows 8, but that's quite a while ago. I haven't gotten it on 8.1.

Windows, ahaha.

No, I havent had a problem with 8.1

Laptop is around 3 years old on i7 820 8gbs ddr3 hd radeon 5800 series.

After many days of researching, I bumped into many threads about this problem around the internet.. including this one.

It seems to me, that the problem mostly occurs for people who upgraded from windows 8 to 8.1 and have a system with intel integrated graphics + a dedicated graphics card with graphics switching technology. (most people who are complaining have an nvidia card alongside the integrated intel one.. but thtas probably just becasue most laptops with graphics switchin are nvidia based laptops, the culprit seems to be intel's 8.1 drivers.. or a lack of them)

So me having bad internet works in my favor. Never updated to 8.1

I didn't get to try it that much, i just updated to 8.1, but lost all sound. Tried reinstalling drivers and looked around for a fix, but no go, ended going back to a win8 image i made. I'll try again in the future

still, i do get some "you should close some programs" warnings when using win8, i increased pagefile to see i fthey keep coming up

I noticed, during the preview time too, that upgrading from 8 to 8.1 brings a lot of errors. A clean install however works flawlessly. So unless you did an upgrade you should be fine.

Overall, for me 8.1 rarely uses more than 3 GB of RAM. The highest I had was a usage of 10GB but that was when I just started loading (allocating) a 40 GB torrent and also had several instances of 7z packing stuff.

Yeah. Annoying as hell.
The Nvidia and Intel HD graphics switching is killing me. Hopefully Intel will release an 8.1 compatible driver and SOON.

Playing the game in compatibility mode did lessen the number of low memory error pop ups but it did not eliminate it completely.

I Don't have any problem with Windows 8.1, but my i7 don't have an integrated VGA.

Haven't even updated yet. After the update that was released Oct 8th, Fallout: New Vegas either kept getting stuck on the loading screen or crashed a few minutes into the game. Whether I actually got past the loading screen or not seemed to be pure luck. I wish I'd tested it out more but I uninstalled the updates immediately and all my problems were fixed. Since then I haven't updated... This makes me not want to update even more...
