Sometimes the pointerscan might not have enough memory available to scan a game or you want to do a scan while a pointerscan is still active (you haven't closed the window)
If that happens and you are on a 64-bit you can do the following so Cheat Engine will have almost twice the amount of memory it would usually have:
First download cff_explorer: http://www.ntcore.com/files/CFF_Explorer.zip
Once downloaded and extracted open the cheat engine.exe file, which should be located at "c:\Program Files (x86)\Cheat Engine\Cheat Engine.exe"
1: go to nt headers->file header and go to characteristics and click on "click here"
2: check the box that says "App can handle >2gb address space"
then save and overwrite the old file
Now Cheat engine can make use of 4GB ram instead of 2GB
remember: This is only useful on systems running with a 64-bit version of windows

It was already checked for me.. and CE still gets stuck when my scan is too "heavy".. I tried both v6.1 and v5.6.1 CEs.
Any ideas?

Start the 64-bit version of cheat engine 6.1
If that also doesn't work make sure your pagefile can still grow

It's also called Large Address Aware. And it works for 32 bit OS too.
To benefit from this LAA you have to have:
- for 64bit OS - over 2GB, like 3GB or more RAM
- for 32bit OS - over 2GB, like 3GB or more RAM and added extra parameter to startup entry.
( /3GB switch added to boot.ini for winxp or "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVA 3072" for Vista, Win7, 2008)

Cheat engine 6+ already does this for you in the 32-bit version
The 64-version can allocate a lot more than 4GB

I have Windows 8.1 x64 with 4gb of RAM
PD: I'm using Cheat Engine 6.3

Configure windows to allow growing of the pagefile. Also make sure you use the 64 bit version of cheat engine

Thank you Dark Byte for your reply.
Here I make sure that I'm using the 64 bit version:
X64 Comprobation.PNG
But how I configure Windows to allow growing of the pagefile?. If you are referring to the "Virtual Memory", is already administrated by the system. I didn't touch that.
My Virtual Memory Setup:

Never use CFF explorer on the 64-bit exe
Anyhow, you may have to reboot a few times after hitting the max before windows decides to grow it. Or else set your own size. (make sure you have enough diskspace)
(Also, before you proceed, the pointerscanner is useless on webbrowser games)

Thank you very much, and sorry for didn't answer before.
I really dont know what fixed the problem, maybe was just restarting the computer. Or I wasn't using the real 64 bits version.
The game wasn't from browser btw.
Thanks!
