System Resources
Can anyone give me a quick rundown on your system resources and how smaller percents affect performance? Is it the RAM? And how do I free resources up. Im using 98SE
Thanx, Sean |

Hi Badboysean,
See this link for the facts and fallacies on system resources http://www.aumha.org/a/resource.htm The way to free up some memory is to minimise the amount of programs running in the background and rebooting the PC periodically e.g. I always reboot and close all programs (ctrl+alt+del) apart from Explorer and Systray, before playing a Game.

Chaeck out the Gateway Resouce Assistant. It helps with resource problems, seeing what it running and help in closing them. It works on any windows 95 to Windows Me computer.
You can find it at http://support.gateway.com/support/d...urce+assistant

FYI: You need to change your link to Startup Cop.
It's here now. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,2173,00.asp |
