846747 2010-01-14 20:46:00 Speedy - it IS high. Remember my pc is bogged down and runs slow when the pagefile is high.
Those Task Manager snaps look fine, ~46MB mem usage for services.exe does NOT use up >2GB of pagefile. The total of mem used by all processes is nowhere near your pagefile usage.
Also, the high CPU usage of System Idle Process is a measure of your CPU having nothing to do :)

Any other ideas are welcome. Thanks.

Turn on some extra columns in Task Manager, like disk io etc.
Something is doing a lot of something....

The high pagefile usage is only a recent development. For more than 4 years 1G of RAM has been just fine.
