How To Reduce Physical Memory Usage

May 11, 2011

What can I do to lower the Physical Memory Usage in my Laptop?

For information, I am using Windows Seven Ultimate (build 7600) with RAM 1 GB, Intel Core i3 M350 @ 2.27 GHz.

When I hit task manager, the Physical Memory:
Total : 941
Cached : 85
Available : 81
Free : 0

Physical Memory average 92% all the time (currently I am using Windows Classic for it is known as the simplest and lowest taking memory of windows setting). If I am using it in normal Windows Seven Aero Themes, my laptop has a big chance to go Blue Screen.

Yes, I gotta tell you that my laptop got Blue Screen suddenly after previous days I set administrator and user password in BIOS. I thought at that time it is just because of it, then after I reset it to default way (no password at all) the system is still has a big chance to go Blue Screen.

I have tried to clean up with Ccleaner, defrag all my disks, using spyware malware removal, and it give me no positive result at all. It is still always goes above 800MB Memory usage with Physical Memory average above 80% all the time.

Reduce The Size Of Screen?

Dec 9, 2012

Yesterday I turned on my desktop PC and the desktop screen, all the icons and the toolbar was much larger than they have ever been before. I have searched the forums and they all say to change the screen resolution. I have checked this and it is 1024 x 768 and the dpi is 100% at 96. I have tried clicking the desktop and scrolling the mouse back too but nothing has worked. Another forum suggested upgrading the graphics driver which I did but that just made it worse so I uninstalled that. I also did a System Restore and that didn't work either.

Can I Reduce The Size Of Win 7 On C Drive

Dec 2, 2009

I recently got an Acer 1810TZ with win 7 installed. My desktop runs win 2000 and the OS is currently less than 2.5Gb and I consider that bloated as originally it was more like 1.4Gb. I like to image and can easily put that on a dvd even without compressing the file.

On my new Acer the OS is taking up between 12 - 14Gb depending if I have a restore configured. I have partitioned the HD into several partitions. I only keep the OS and absolutely min stuff on my C drive and I have one partition dedicated to the page file only, 3Gb, and have all my programs etc installed on another partition. The recycle bin has also been reduced to 256mb on the C drive

Is there a way to significantly reduce the OS (C drive) to say less than 4Gb ?

How To Reduce Installation Size

Dec 4, 2012

I just built a PC and installed Win 7 ultimate on a 240GB SSD (223GB usable) and I noticed after the installation 153GB of the drive is already used which seems like a lot. This is a brand new drive so there shouldn't be anything else on there. I'd like to shrink the footprint a little bit in order to keep the drive from filling up. I have an additional 1 TB drive which I'm going to try to to store most everything on, but I'd like to try and free up the SSD as much as I can.

Cannot Reduce The Used Space In Hard Drive

Dec 13, 2012

I know this is not a 7 OS but I have a Toshiba laptop that one of my work colleagues has with XP on it. She is saving very hard for a new desktop (with 7) and needs this machine for the meantime.

Now the machine only has a 40GB HDD and I have been trying to empty it out but no amount of uninstalling programs seems to work. I have had to install IE8 (6 before) Comodo free and SP3 so I guess that is some of the problem?

I have removed nearly 300 malwares from the machine and really I wouldn't be doing this if she didn't need it. give me a few pointers as the disk is now just 1.35GB shy of full?

Unable To Reduce Size Of Partition?

Jul 22, 2010

I am unable to reduce the size of my OS(C) partition to desired size. I've written my recovery disks in case of any problems.

The Shrink C box shows available shrink size is 0. I understand this is because there are unmovable files in the way. One post I saw said to disable system recovery. This is a brand new machine that I want to make dual boot Windows and linux. Want only about 80GB for Windows and 300 for linux. I also saw where someone suggested to use ghost program, then wipe C drive clean and reinstall Windows OS on smaller partition. Sounds drastic.

Windows 7, Closing Laptop Lid Causes Volume To Automatically Reduce?

Aug 14, 2011

Just having a weird problem with Windows 7. When I am using earphones or my laptop speakers and then I close the lid on my laptop, it causes a great reduction in the volume of the sound output automatically.While the laptop lid is still open, the volume on all programs remains normal.However, when I close my laptop lid, it seems Windows automatically reduces the volume.Let's say I put the volume on my laptop to 40/100 units in the sound mixer. All programs I am using are set to use the volume the sound output device is using, so everything else is also at 40/100 units, including Media Player Classic.I am usually using Media Player Classic to play some FLAC music. I usually have earphones connected, but this issue recurs without them as well.

When I close my laptop, in about 2 seconds the sound volume will automatically reduce to 5/100 units in the Volume Mixer in the taskbar. This sound reduction also only applies to the program I am currently using to play music (e.g. MPC or iTunes, the two which I've tried so far).After re-opening my laptop, I check the Volume Mixer and it shows only MPC or iTunes sound output is reduced. The system device speakers will still be at 40/100 units volume.his is really frustrating, because I like to turn on some music,

I have created a desktop shortcut using the following path in Target: [code] This shortcut is successful in opening the microemulator but I then have to go through additional steps to run the Opera Mini browser. The additional steps are: click File-> click Open MIDIet File...-> hightlight opera-mini-6.5.26955-advanced-en-us.jad-> click Open-> click Start.I have been told it is possible to eliminate all but the last step (Start) by adding appsopera-mini-6.5.26955-advance-en-us.jad to the file path but I cannot get it to work. When I do this and click on the shortcut a small black window flashes then disappears and nothing else happens.Would anyone have any thoughts on how I can reduce the number of steps to open Opera Mini?

Memory Usage Gets Slow After Usage

Nov 10, 2012

When I first boot up the machine and start using it (win 7 ultimate 64bit) the memory usage stays arround 40%. If I keep using it, the memory usage will slowly increase until it reaches 99%. If I boot up the machine and just leave it there for a couple of hours, the same happens.I try to restart (via windows), it logs off, shuts down the system, the coolers keep spinning, the motherboard lights are still on, but it doesn't boot up again. It remains like that. I have to restart via reset button or power button.

Audiodg.exe (Ram Usage, NOT CPU Usage)

Jun 10, 2009

My Audiodg.exe process is currently using 2,786,070 kB (not just normal bytes, kilobytes) of Ram. 2.66gb+ of Ram! I have searched the web as well as this site for any problems. My audio is working fine though... I have no idea why this using so much ram. Im guessing a memory leak of some kind... I restartand it starts off at a normal pace...

RAM Usage

Nov 28, 2009

Now that the whole "bitstory" is clear to me, I've got another question.

At the moment I've got a Windows Vista 32 bit version and 4 GB of RAM.

32 bit Windows 7 requires at least 1 GB of RAM, but can only use around 3.5 RAM.

64 bit Windows 7 requires at least 2 GB of RAM, but can use larger amounts of RAM.

Now whats best for me?

Buy a 64 version so I can use my full amount of RAM (but loose 2GB for the OS)

or just upgrade to a 32 bit version, neglecting the 0.5 RAM that Windows cant use?

(how much RAM does Windows 7 (32/64) use in an idle situation?)

Ram Usage Keeps Going Up?

Jun 13, 2011

When I turn on or restart my PC after everything is loaded the task manager says I'm using 25% of my Ram. After two or three days my ram usage goes up to 50% while just sitting there.

It never really goes up past 50-55% but I want to know why it starts at 25% and then goes to 50%.

Windows 7 CPU Usage Is Up?

Nov 18, 2011

My Windows 7 laptop has recently been through about a half-dozen supposed "fixes" to malware and registry repairs. It is still running high CPU cycles. How can I fix it (preferably without paying for anything)? I have AVG and will purchase their PC TuneUp when I get a chance, and I just bought SpeedyPC earlier tonight.So, I don't want to spend more money. I have tried Spybot, Malwarebytes, and another one (can't remember).
