A modern op system should use all the RAM it is given. Why not? It is seen as just another cache which should be filled up as quickly as possible. See here for info on Vista's strategy:- www.codinghorror.com Its a pretty good measure in in fact! |

SolMiester for the love of anyone lsten to the me and the others and stop bleating about what YOU think is right. Mab it is for you but WHO cares. When you cant see the difference between 512MB and 1GB then hats the issue. Who cares about wear and tear because before they wear out your PC will be lat decades technology. You are tryin to impose YOUR commets on everyone else and not listen to anyone else. Try being open minded. I am. I have 2GB in my machine but I KNOW that 512MB worked fine in mine (as the other guy said it worked in his) and 1 GB also worked the same. I have said all I am going to now because he asked for help with an issue (not about how much memory he needed). I was just trying to correct your asumption but obviously you wont listen. |
