You can get that message if the card is not supported by the card reader or OS. You didn't tell enough for anyone to give you the best advice or guesses.

Even Windows 7 needed updates and a better card reader to handle that new 64GB SDHC.

I found out that I can decrease the pagefile.sys, right click System Icon and you can create a new restore point and under that, is Advanced system settings. Performance, click on settings, The 2nd tab reads Advanced, click on that. Virtual memory can be changed there. Uncheck Automatically and select Custom mmy settings for me are 1000MB Minimum size and 1500 MB Maximum size. I am using the minimum.
