Hi Running jaws 5 and XP Home. From a fresh start with jaws running I go to System Info and am told that I have 306 Mb free out of 512 Mb ram. I realise that this is a silly question as it all depends on what is running, but could anyone tell me if that figure is about right. Apart from jaws and Norton anti virus I have nothing in my sys tray. There are several items in msconfig start up but I have not worked out what they all are yet. I am trying to get the best performance from my pC and I was just wondering if the amount of free ram I have is about right for the sort of system I have.
