Hi Vince,

I have 384 mb total, and around 110 mb available. I've had virtual memory low messages low for a time, and when running Cicero v3.02, I got the message "Memory low; please close some applications". I've adjusted my startup list and that's cleared a little more. I'm wondering how much working memory one needs on average; I'm not using heavy graphics stuff.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike,

Presumably it depends what you want your system to do and what total memory it's got.

I run Rambooster, but it doesn't solve any problems long-term, it seems to me. If I watch the available memory as announced by Rambooster, it makes a difference for a few sexonds, and that might be enough to ease a problem you know you might get in the immediate future. To that extent it's useful.

Did your system slow down when you changed something? Installed a new device or program perhaps?

Vince.

Hi,

Is it worth running a programme such as ramboost under XP Home? My memory resources seem to be running low, i.e. 384 mb total, and 111 mb available. Or is it time for a memory upgrade?

Thanks for help,

Mike
