Hi- I wanted to host the Elastic Search on a Windows-7 machine which is installed with 32-bit. I could able to install the elastic search service, but when I start it, its throwing a error message. I've attached the screenshots below: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/a/ae9130bccf166f330b3224accf7632fe2bda0505.png) I've just noticed the logs, it has updated with " 2017-01-10 07:13:27 Commons Daemon procrun stdout initialized Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for 2097152KB object heap " Please let me know, how do I resolve this issue. Thanks ! ---

how about your machine system resource, CPUs or Memory,. the provided info indicates ES cannot allocate enough heap memory， while the default configuration are -Xms2g -Xmx2g. OR you may change this parameters to smaller. ---

Hi @wenpos Thanks for your reply. I've changed the Java Heap size in (Control Panel-\> Programe-\> Java) path as the default size and also tried increasing to -Xms512m and also with -Xms3072m, which didn't work out. Could you please help me out. My VM Windows Configuration Is: Windows-7 32 Bit C: Driver of 80 GB RAM: 4GB ---

@prakash1243 change the ES JVM default configuration -Xms2g -Xmx2g to -Xms1g -Xmx1g ,or more smaller, have a try , the configuration file in $ES\_HOME/config/jvm.options ---
