Insufficient memory question here. I may not have a problem at all, but I find it odd that with 512mb RAM I’m running into insufficient memory errors as often as I am. Right now, for instance, I have running Winamp, Act 2.0 (yes, you read that right), America Online 5.0 (yes, you read that right, too; why upgrade if I don’t need the extra crap?), Movie Magic Screenwriter, and 4 Mozilla browser windows with a total of 13 tabs open. As it stands it says I have 26% free. I had Freehand running as well, but when I tried to perform a function it said insufficient memory. When I checked it said resources were below 1%.
I know I used to routinely run almost if not as much as that at once when 192mb RAM on my old Gateway and only rarely ran into insuff/mem problems. I’ve checked Task Manager and see nothing unusual running in the background, ran scandisk/defrag just two days ago, have cleared the temp files and internet caches, and have checked for adware/spybots and come up with nothing.
So–do I have a problem I don’t know about, or am I really just taxing 512 that much?
Thanks.
