Saries Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 The full message is "insufficient system resources to complete task" and it appears in the "status" of individual torrents making the torrents stop. This usually happens after about 40 minutes of normal speed downloads.It takes a reboot to clear the 'resource usage' and resume normal utorrent function.I've never experienced this since using utorrent years ago.The only two things I did yesterday was, 1. (I'm hoping this is the culprit) Changed some settings in utorrent > advanced > disk cacheOverride automatic cache size (35mb)Reduce memory usage (checked)Enable caching of disk writes (check)Write out untouched blocks (check)Write out finished pieces (check)Enable caching of disk reads (check)Turn off read caching if the upload speed is slow (check)Remove old blocks (check)Increase automatic cache size when cache trashing (uncheck)2. Remove Avast and use Kaspersky Internet Security, utorrent and openvpn is set to allow, while firewall is set to low security. My RAM is 2 gig and Paging file is 2000 mb, it's been that way for ages with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossmanfly Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Theres another post with other people having the same issues so its good thats its not just me. I too have just encountered it. Every 40 mins upto 2 hours, utorrent brings up this error whether seeding or downloading, and it seems to clog the PC down and I have to reset as I can't load other programs up, all the icons for Exe files are blank, and the GUI of windows gets in a bit of a mess.I havent changed any settings at all, I have even cleared the settings, used a older version and still the same. I have now completely deleted utorrent the regfiles and setting files and will reinstall again tommorow. PC as it the day before this started to happen, no windows updates etc, I even went back on system restore a day or 2 and again that made no difference.I thought initially it was the PC, maybe the RAM being an issue. I did get a out of the blue, BSOD last night, but I used utorrent last night afterwards for a few hours seeding. The PC has been on for nearly 6 hours with Bit Tornado running the same torrents I was using with utorrent, and everything is fine, so pretty sure its down to utorrentI use Kaspersky Internet Security (installed about 3 weeks ago) as well and have Utorrent as allow and low security.Apart from Kaspersky and Peer Guardian I dont have any other security programs running.

Bad Seed Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Phew, I thought it was just me. Another Kaspersky user here with the insufficient resources problem. This thing is worse than my old times with Windows Millennium, I'm rebooting every 2 hours or so :/I will try the trick posted by WolFHeArT and I'll come back later to tell you if it worked.P.S: Now I remember that yesterday my KIS asked for reboot to apply an update :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leniwiec16 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Same problem here. Since yesterday it's getting on my nerves, at least I'm not alone :/ Symptoms matches exactly (40 min up to 3 hours period then error, mess with other progs, windows GUI etc.) I also remember rebooting system after yesterdays KIS update as Bad Seed said. I tried WolFHeArT's trick with KIS 7.0.0.125 and it didn't help. Ehh I hope someone will work this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saries Posted April 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Hi guys,I'm still putting this under close observation but for the past 12 hours since posting here the ultra annoying error didn't came up.Here's what I did, 1. Turn off Kaspersky firewall2. Switch on Windows FirewallThat sort of defeats the purpose of buying KIS in the first place, but I guess it's a trade-off for making utorrent stable.I'm interested in Wolfheart's fix, is that a beta version of Kaspersky? I'm using KIS version 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flitox Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 i did the kaspersky trick and it didn't work, it happened again when i launched googleearthi'm starting to suspect latest release of firefox to fuck things up, but right now i cant find ver 2.0.0.13 to try if it still work normally with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Looks like Kaspersky messed something up in a recent update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Uninstall Kaspersky until they fix their bugs. They'll probably fix it within a week (or so you'd hope...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Seed Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Yup, the fix didn't work for me either. After 3 hours and 15 minutes I went out of system resources again.I uninstalled Kaspersky Internet Security and now everything is running smoothly.

flitox Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 as soon as i have desactivate K.I.S., utorrent worked again!!!! no more annoying fontsand at least i'm seeing a topic on that on kaspersky forum, good!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It4Ch1 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 trying saries solution and i think already past 2 hrs. everything is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossmanfly Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Well I havent used Utorrent today at all, was testing out my system as I was having other issues like the Windows GUI messing up, windows being empty and other graphical glitches, but that seems to be happening to other users as well so glad its not my PC being faulty.I use KIS 7.0.1.325 so as this has just happened is it one of the recent updates that has messed up? If I disable the firewall for the time being does that work? I dont mind doing that as before installing KIS I would use just my Routers firewall anyway.

Firon Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Disable KIS temporarily. Once they release a new update it should be okay to re-enable. Personally, I'd go with the router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossmanfly Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Well I use both KIS Firewall and Router, but I will disable KIS Firewall for the time being, and try utorrent again with it tommorow, hopefully that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saries Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Still going strong with no " Insufficient system resources" error.I haven't been using Firefox since 12 hours ago, if something happens while surfing with firefox, I'll post it here.

GTHK Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Can you give the full version number for the update? And did you just disable it? Or uninstall it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saries Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 There's a checkbox in Firewall > Enable Firewall, I just unchecked it.The update database is dated 20th April, 2008.Is this normal behavior from Kaspersky? I just bought it a couple of days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 No, they messed it up recently (week ago or so) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peyote Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Another long-time KIS user here having the same problem starting on Friday after database updates. I hope Kaspersky fixes this problem soon. There's no way in hell I'm gonna turn KIS completely off, let alone switch to Windows Firewall - that's like having NO firewall at all. I might turn KIS firewall off and use another one, maybe Comodo or Zone Alarm if they take too long to solve this problem.They are talking about it in Kaspersky forum.http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=66498Also in Russian...http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=66354Btw, the minute I turn KIS firewall off everything works fine so we can easily blame KIS for this one. I haven't installed anything on this PC in a long time and it has been working fine for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 The windows firewall does a good enough job blocking incoming connections (which imo, is all a firewall should do).But there appears to be a fix for now. Force an update in KIS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
