Windows problem

Minutes ago, I started up my game via the Steam desktop app on my Alienware Aurora R8 desktop PC with Intel® Core ™ i5-9400 CPU @ 2.90GHz   2.90 GHz, 8.00 GB (7.83 GB usable) installed RAM, it has Windows 11 Home Edition ver. 23H2, Intel UHD Graphics 630, TOSHIBA DT01ACA200 hard drive. When my game titled Football Manager 2024 was on its loading screen, it started rapidly flash an empty main page from the aforementioned Steam app. I went into my task manager and received a message that said, "The memory on your device is running low." With that said, is there any way I can increase the memory on my PC, in order to run my game?

    Keep your Windows and drivers updated. Ensure your game and Steam client are updated. Check for malware or background scans that might consume memory.

    If your drive or RAM is faulty, it can cause performance issues:

    Run Windows Memory Diagnostic (mdsched.exe) for RAM.

    Use Crysta1DiskInfo to check your drive's health.
