I have recently (1 month ago) built a new computer for the first time. But at random startups, or what think is random, Vista 64 bit freezes at the sliding bar (right before you get the small vista circle logo). I have learned that if I reboot enough times, usually 3-5 vista will startup normally. This is not all of the wierd stuff that happens. I have gotten one error before vista's boot saying the BootMGR is corrupt and one that talked about the check sum not maching the table, I could get the full error if you need it.
Lastley, when Im in vista everything works well without a probablem, but when I have the computer on for awhile Ill get the yellow triangle in the taskbar, which tells me my virtual memory is low, but I have 4 gigs of ram.
Any help is appreciated, and I thankyou in advance! I have tested memory using memtest and today I will do a virus scan because I could have picked something up from then to now.
I almost forgot I was looking thourgh the boot logger and saw these 2 drivers. you can tell me if they mean anything.
Did not load driver \SystemRoot\System32\Drivers\NDProxy.SYS
Did not load driver \SystemRoot\System32\DRIVERS\srv.sys

Um, Virtual memory is hard drive space not ram (what the computer uses as RAM)....and it sounds like you need to reformat because if your getting the low virtual mem error...your low on HDD space..
You might want run the scandisk with the box to fix errors checked. It looks like you might have some system files corruption. This can cause the systems you describe. Run the scan disk on all your hard drives/partitions.
open "my computer", then on your c: drive right click/properties/tools/error checking/press check now/next check both boxes/start. Do this on all your partitions.
This are the directions from windows xp, but I'm sure vista has something very similar to scan and fix errors on your hard drives.
Ok, so I ran disk scan and here is the log file in its fullness:
