| | Re: memory I am not sure I understand what you are saying. How much memory does your computer have? What is the size of your paging file? Do you have a Ready Disk flash drive installed?

| | Re: memory You sound a tad confused. hard disk space and system memory are 2 different things. Your statement "but still my computer holds way to much memory than my computer can handle" makes no sense. Start from the beginning with any problems your having rather than assuming things. -- ---- Crosspost, do not multipost http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 How to Post http://www.dts-l.org/goodpost.htm _________________________________________________________________________________ "angie" <angie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:5119E0EC-6E81-4A91-BDF0-AF47C9863FF2@xxxxxx Quote: >i have done the disc clean up and defragmented files, but still my computer > holds way to much memory than my computer can handle, making everything > slow, > including the internet, please help? |

| | Re: memory Hi, If everything is slow, it may be that you have too little memory, not too much. The more physical memory the better. As to data and program storage, as long as you retain at least 15% free disk space, that should not be a concern either. I suspect rather that your problems stem from too much loading at boot and running in the background. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "angie" <angie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:5119E0EC-6E81-4A91-BDF0-AF47C9863FF2@xxxxxx Quote: >i have done the disc clean up and defragmented files, but still my computer > holds way to much memory than my computer can handle, making everything > slow, > including the internet, please help? |
