Wow you don't have much room left on drive C.
Yes most people have applications checked. The minimum and maximum aren't far off from Microsoft's specs. Usually the minimum is 1.5 times your ram(288) and the maximum is twice the ram(384) Do you use a bunch of graphics or memory hogging applications?
I thought maybe you might have added some ram and not adjusted the page file. Bump up your low number and see how that goes. Windows 2000 and XP use memory and the page file a bunch.
You are running out of room on that C drive. That is most likely where that warning is coming from.
Try cleaning out you temp files and maybe uninstalling programs you don't need or get it on a bigger partition. If you have Hibernation enabled and don't use it that will give you back 192MB. Lower that upper number to 384 that will buy you some more space. Good luck!!!

Sorry I didn't answer faster headed to work right after I asked the question.
