Cris, click CTRL-ALT-DEL and bring up the WIDNOWS TASK MANAGER. Click on 
PROCESSES. You'll notice a column there for MEM USAGE. If you click the MEM 
USAGE title, it'll place everything in order of what's using the most memory 
(from least to most). Click it again and it'll place everything in reverse 
order (most to least). Now, you can see what it is that is taking up so much 
memory.

Also... on the very bottom it should show total memory being used and how much 
is available (COMMIT CHARGE). This will allow you to see if your system is 
seeing all the memory in the first place.

I don't think it has anything to do with anything that I 
downloaded or installed. So I doubt system restore would 
help me. And It's been happening for a while now - so I 
probably couldn't go back even if I wanted to!!
thanks for the thoughts!!!
Cris

maybe is it that something from external, an online 
something could have
changed it. Any recent downloads of anything, then 
installed?  Mumble
mumble....Would doing a system restore put the whole system 
BACK to where it
didn't keep changing? But then you still don't know 
WHY..hmmmm.

This is driving me nuts! I am constantly getting the pop up
about windows virtual memory being too low.
It just popped up again! I have just re-booted my computer
also! It shouldn't be popping up!
No spyware shows up - no viruses show up that could be
dragging the system down.
any thoughts?
Cris
