Hi,

Just rebooted my PC and noticed that it was running a bit dogged after the boot. So did the old <CTRL> <ATL> <DLT> and noticed something weird. Under the 'performance' tab and under 'Physical Memory' I have a total of 523760 (which is normal).

But under 'Available' I only have 46800. Well I'm sorry if I'm being thick but doesn't that mean that I only have 46mb of RAM actually free?!?!?!?! Straight after a reboot??

Please tell me I'm wrong.


Cheers
Marc

Sounds wierd.

I have 512MB and TaskMan reports that as 523740.

I currently have 320156 free (Outlook, Excel, IE and other bits running).

Go to the processes tab and click on the Mem Usage col to see if something is hogging all your RAM.

Hi Chris,

Hows it going mate? Seems you answer a lot of my problems lately

Anyway, figured it out now. It was Kazaa Lite - a setting I had tweaked meant it was taken all the RAM. Sorted it now though.

Cheers
