| 23709 | 2001-11-05 22:25:00 | My pc running on windows Me has AMD Duron 850 processor, 128Megs RAM, 20Gigs Hard Drive. When I turn on my pc and it shows about 85% system resources free. Then when I run some application it goes down (that's natural). But when I close that application it should have come back to its privious level(85%) but it does not. The problem is.. as I run more and more applications close it resources comes down to about 50-55% even when no applications are running and it starts to slow down(at least I notice it). Is it normal or some kind of problem. Your help would be appriciated. Thank you. | Guest (0) | ||

APPARENTLY winXP has a better memory manager which overcomes this but I don't have it yet so can't confirm that. Fir your problem, get one of the RAM defragmenters or similar to do the job for you. Try FreeRam or Freemem. They're both free. And set them to run via a task scheduler so that RA< is being regularly cleaned up. | Guest (0) | ||

The only real fix is to reboot, although updating your programs may help. Windows NT/2000/XP doesn't have the problem as they don't have the old windows 3.1 code.
