My Minecraft has recently run out of memory and i cant seem to find the problem. I have a gateway windows 8 laptop. I did go to edit profile on minecraft ad put in the -Xmx2G thingy. I have looked on a few sources and now have decided to come here. If you can help me fix this, please help!!
also make sure you have windows 64bit and java 64bit if you wish to apply more than 1.5GB
how do i check if i have java64 bitAlso, i cai am going to type what it says when i start minecraft. I pres play on the minecraft launcher and i says an error instead of going to minecraft. The error read: Error: could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: a fatal exception has occurred. Program will now exit.
i would guess from that error that you don't have java 64bit, or the path to it is incorrect so when your trying to allocate 2G it can't, you shouldn't need to allocate more ram to minecraft unless your using large texture packs.
minecraft will use the ram it needs, not all of what you allocate, so offering it 2G can sometimes be pointless.
you can download java from here http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
