Dec 1, 2008

While the maximum RAM limit for 32-bit Windows 7 editions is 4GB, when it comes to the 64-bit editions, the amount of memory that the OS can address depends on which edition you are running.

Windows 7 32-bit Memory Limits?

Apr 22, 2012

Wasn't sure whether to post this in hardware or software. I'm running Win 7 32-bit with 2 GB memory in my system,considering upgrading to 4 GB. I've read that the 32-bit ver will only utilize 2.5 to 3.6 GB memory maximum. If my system will only utilize 2.5 GB memory, an upgrade wouldn't really be worth it, but if it will utilize 3.6 GB, I think that would be a nice boost. What determines the maximum memory Win 7 is capable of utilizing in my system in that 2.5 - 3.6 range?

Windows 7 X64 Disk - Any Limits For Reinstall?

Dec 21, 2011

How do I know how many re-installs I can do with my Windows 7 x64 disk. I plan on purchasing an SSD drive. I know I have the option of moving the current install to the new drive, but have no clue how. Ideally I'd like to reformat and re-install, because, a lot of files where misplace / renamed as I was in the process of learning the new OS.

What Are The Operating Limits Of Windows Xp Professional

Dec 23, 2012

I got a new laptop with 4GB/4GZ gear and it came with Win7 64 bit. So, I bought Win 7 32 bit. I had a pro reformat the HD and have 2 o.s. It asks which way I want to go when I boot up. I have been having a lot of problems loading printer drivers and PLOTTERS drivers. I am thinking of reformatting the HD again with XP Pro and Win7 64 bit. The concern is about the XP pro running slower if not at all due to RAM & processor in the new LT.

What Are The Allowed Max Limits For Number Of Contacts Per Email

Jun 18, 2011

I regularly send emails to about 300+ members of my social club. Our club is growing and I am concerned about hitting the allowed limits, especially now that I am trying to transition from using an email client to using web-based Windows Live Mail.Before I commit to it, does anyone know the maximum allowed limits for emails in WLM?

1. How many contact addresses are allowed in a single email?

2. How many contacts can I email in a single day, or per hour?

3. If I send out 2 emails to the same 300 people, does that count as 300 or as 600?

4. Are there any other limits I should be aware of?

5. What happens if I go over the limit?

6. Can I be allowed a higher limit if I can demonstrate I am sending out legitimate emails to people who want these messages from me (i.e. that I am not a spammer)?

Windows 7 Explorer.exe Running At Total Memory After A Few Minutes "memory Leak"

Oct 28, 2012

To start, I have Windows 7, on Sony Vaio laptop. I have been working on the issues with the malware removal team, but now machine looks clean, I am still having issues. When starting the computer and going to the task manager, I can watch explorer.exe start at about 18K memory usage and then grow constantly until it is running with almost all of the computer's physical memory after about seven min. I cannot get the context menu to show up after a few min by right clicking on anything. I had been experiencing "freezing" while playing Eden Eternal (an online role playing game) before that, which made me consider malware and seek help here at BleepingComputer. The freezing has ended, last time I played on that machine at least, but now there seems to be some issue with the explorer.exe taking all of the memory. I haven't been using the machine since I don't trust that there's not something running in the background that shouldn't be. In resource monitor there were "connections" that had "-" for both the name and the PID, but I don't know if that was the malware of if that's normal somehow? Issue with explorer.exe seems to be limited to only one user account, and not the other one. That is to say that if I log on one of the other accounts explorer.exe behaves normally, as far as memory usage.

Troubleshooting Excessive Memory Use (Memory Leak) After Playing Video

Oct 6, 2012

i am having a problem with my memory getting tied up / used up and not being able to access it again until i reboot.

machine: dell xps studio 8100
os: win 7,
processor: i7 2.8
ram: 16gb (max it will take)
video: ati radeon 5700 (running 3 monitors)

versions: as far as i know i am running current versions of everything, including video drivers, flash, chrome, etc. (i've tried running chrome with both the build in version of flash and the system version -haven't seen a difference)

browser: i nearly exclusively run chrome / canary with auto-updates so am at the latest builds.what seems to cause me to use up / run out of memory is after i play videos (Internet, netflix, etc.), the memory seems to get used, but is not returned to the system, even if the browser is closed and re-opened.right now for example things are working fine; i rebooted my system a couple hours ago (but have not played any videos). i have adobe lightroom running, picasa, chrome and canary (currently 4 web browser windows open with 52 tabs open). task manager currently shows me using 8.20gb of ram, that seems pretty reasonable to me.

normally my system will keep running properly (if a program is closed, memory is freed up) right up until i start to play any videos (Internet, netflix, etc.) then it will start using up more memory. (of course i expect it to use more memory during playback) however, even if i restart the browser, the memory does not get freed back up. for example, just prior to the reboot, with everything closed, i was using right around 8gb of ram. once i rebooted, i was using 1.something gb of ram prior to opening any programs.however, once i start playing some videos, i never seem to be able to get my ram freed back up again unless i reboot the whole system. this is not just a problem with how much memory the system shows as being available, i frequently actually run out of memory. (task manager will show me as using around 15gb and then everything starts swapping out like crazy).

Chkdsk High Memory Usage / Memory Leak?

Jun 1, 2009

I find that if I run chkdsk and watch the memory usage in task manager it jumps by about 50MB every 2 seconds or so until it either finishes or hits around 3.2GB at which point my physical memory shows 99% used (I'm running 4GB), and the system of course slows to a crawl.f you just run a quick chkdsk on your boot drive you may not notice it, but try running something longer like chkdsk /r on a flash drive or chkdsk /f on a bigger internal drive (but not your OS drive as this would require a reboot) and watch the memory usage climb. I have duplicated this on both systems I have running Windows 7. My XP machine (checking the same USB flash drive) uses a much more normal amount of memory for chkdsk (20 - 30 MB).

Memory Usage Goes Up Gradually (Memory Leak)

May 22, 2010

Memory Usage Goes Up Gradually (Memory Leak)When I starting the Windows (in the first few hours) everything is normal But after 1 day or 2 (sooner or later) the amount of available memory gradually goes down and the physical memory usage increasing. This increasing, continues until the memory usage reaches near the 88% and at that point , there isn't any memory available to operate any software . Also when memory reaches that point, I can't access any drive in the HDD; because everytime I want to open any folder, the following error appears :c: is not accessible.Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service At this point, I even can't shutdown or restart Windows normally; I must restart windows manually by pressing the restart button.after restart, everything goes to normal again; but this problem appears again and again ...

OS : Windows 7 x86
Cpu : Intel P4 3.0GH
Vga : nVidia 6600

Increased Memory Usage With Added Memory?

Nov 5, 2011

I just built a new computer and started with 8GB of memory. A few weeks down the line I purchased another set of the same memory because it was on such a good deal and had great reviews (newegg). It also was working well for me, so I figured maybe more could be better.

I haven't noticed any decrease/increase in system performance except Alt-Tabbing has recently got slower. Also, Windows 7 was sitting tight on 1.3gb to 2gb of memory usage prior to the extra 8 (now 16) being added. Even when gaming, it went up to like 3gb. Now that I've added the extra it's going up to 4.5gb or better. Also, is it possible to speed up my alt-tabbing? It seems to have a good 3-4 second pause in it instead of being immediate like it was.

Computer specs:
Windows 7 HP 64-bit
gSkill 16gb 1866 memory (BIOS shows it at 1866, too)
Intel i5-2500k Sandy Bridge (OC'd 4.6 with factory Overclock presets)
ASRock z68 Extreme4 mobo

Mar 17, 2009

So i have 32x Windows 7 I also have 8GB of memory.

My question is how much memory can this architecture actually see? its 32bit, so shouldn't it only see a max of 4? in the my computer properties, it tells me i have 8, but a bunch of programs tell me i have the 3.25.

Do i need to move to 64x? and what happens with the drivers for my custom built pc? will i be able to find them? (most of my disks wont install 32 bit drivers on Windows 7 beta) i cant really do the vista driver backup with driver max, because i use XP

any help? ideas? suggestions? Thoughts? Comments? Wize cracks?

Windows 7 Memory Use Too Low

Aug 16, 2011

I have Win7HP. When I look into System properties it states: Installed Memory(RAM) 4.00 insatlled (3.50 usable). I have run the memory test suggested in the forums elsewhere, and it results state 4.00 g installed and no problems or errors. I have tried the suggestion to:run msconfig, select boot tab, choose advanced options, and uncheck the Max mem box. Ihave followed these instructions to the letter, and I still have only 3.5 Gs used. When I was running Vista, it used all my memory, and my game (Alganon) performed without any faults. Now, the program chashes (Alganon has stopped working) almost ever time I run it. Nothing else has changed, nothing. I want to know why windows has determined it will not support my 4 Gs in this much-touted Windows7HP.

Out Of Memory On Start-up Windows 7-64b

Feb 28, 2012

I'm running an HP pavilion Dv6 notebook Windows 7 64-bit Coming up to 3 yrs old, For a couple of weeks now I�ve been having this problem where as soon as I log on the comp freezes and is basically unusable. I can move the cursor around but clicking anything just results in a waiting icon and it goes non responsive. After 3-10 mins I then get an error dialogue (but with a BLANK title bar) saying " An error System.Outofmemoryexception was thrown" - the only button is 'OK' which I click. Now I know these exceptions come with if you write an infinite loop in programming etc but this occurs EVERY time whether I attempt to open a programme or not - so it must be the OS not a software thing.

Windows 7 Memory Usage?

May 17, 2011

I have just bought a new computer. It has Windows 7, 2.67Ghz i5, 450GB HD, and 4GB RAM. I am getting crazy surges in my Memory usage. I have been reading that the bloatware that comes with the computer (sony vaio stuff) can contribute to this (you may notice there are 99 processes). This surge (picture) occurred when I opened chrome but it was listed as using up around 25MB, which was also the largest program by memory usage. Can someone please explain how I can lower my memory usage? It has surged to 100% a couple of times before and i have only had this computer for 2 days! The computer averages 65% when I am simply surfing the web.

Windows 7 Memory Error?

Feb 28, 2012

Just bought a used computer yesterday. Came with 4 x 1 Gig ram memory. It's an HP Pavillion desktop with an Asus motherboard in it. The motherboard itself can handle up to 16 Gig (x4 slots at 4 gig a piece) so that's not the problem. The problem is, everything I try to boot it with anything more than one chip in (1 gig) it runs, but nothing appears on the monitor.Just acts like it's going to boot and never does. I've tried using two and four sticks both, properly placed, and same error.
