I got this notification yesterday and ignored it, then got it again today. My G75 is running whisper quiet and I am NOT putting it through much. Just WoW on High settings which l know good and well it can handle. Should I just ignore this?

I don't know...that's harsh when Windows tells you your gaming computer is slow...

I'd be tempted to run DPC Latency Checker to see if any drivers are causing latency on your system.

Maybe uninstall ASUS Live Update, McAfee Antivirus, or Akamai Web Interface (if you find it in "Control Panel - Uninstall a program").

The phrase "not enough resources" typically means Memory resources, more specifically Nonpaged Pool memory resources. Perhaps a drver installed on your system is leaking Nonpaged memory. What Antivirus, AntiMalware, Firewall, Remote Access, or Disk Management software have you installed to your system? These are the usual suspects.

Not sure buy guessing wow is some kind of game?

Let me take another blind guess ... you might have patches/updates to the game that are not applied?

Even though I am old ... I am a competitive athlete still putting in about 50 miles a week running and some cross training.

Between that stuff and family obligations and work stuff ... life gets pretty dang busy ... like I said before not a gamer.

Going out to San Francisco in a couple of months for Oracle Open World 2012 ... 50 thousand geeks and damagers ( managers ) ... I am presenting out there again this year as part of the conference.

So yeah ... pretty much ... I live under a rock!

This is because WOW is changing your screen settings. I have had this with various games in the past.

For anyone else I've potentially confused, I'm talking about World of Warcraft lol. As for it changing my screen settings, do you mean resolution? Because I have it set to the native 1920x1080 of the screen.

The suspicion is that somehow / somewhere you are leaking memory allocations which after a while cause windows 7 to start nagging you ... my shot in the dark guess is that perhaps there are updates/patches to the game you are running that you have not applied.

Someone else noted:

...

So between possible missing wow maintenance and the other items above that might get you on the path to solving.
