RE: Microsoft System Information --- % System Resources Free

I've use RamTurbo to defrag ram, which helps to avoid resource lock ups in
many cases; I like it better than MemTurbo.

Nicholas,

I use a program called Taskinfo 2000.  I was so impressed that I actually
registered it after one day.  This provides me with a breakdown of
everything running on my system and provides me with a means of deleting
anything I don't want running.  There were times that Fastfind would crank
up and drag my system to its knees.  Takes me about a second to shut it
down.  Now I have it scheduled so that it runs once a week not every 5
minutes.

I saw another program somewhere but I'm not sure I kept the information that
other people thought worked well.

The articles from Langa were quite informative, so I'd read these also.  I
use MEMTURBO, but after reading Langa, I'm not sure this does me much good.

Paranoia...you only have to be right once to make it all worthwhile!

Nicholas,

The utility written by Microsoft to measure system resources is
a notorious resource hog so be sure and remove this program from
the system tray.  See articles by Fred Langa on www.winmag.com for
a series of articles on how to optimize your machines system resources.
Most of the RAM boosters are useless and just cause additional overhead.

Thanks,


Ron Stockstill

Al Taglavore,

You mean if I place my cursor over the icon of the program file:

msinfo32.exe

that the % should momentarily come up?

Doesn't seem to be working.

Also, I used the tool System Configuration Utility, Startup, and Xed out a
few programs that apparently rudely wormed their way in somehow, but after
rebooting, the % still said 77%.

I wish Norton or someone would come up with a way to get things sleeked
down.

Thanks,
Nicholas
