system resources XP Pro

[Gait_Keeper]

where is it? I was in device manager and can't find it, some time i'd like to know how much free resources i have.

[John Prophet]

is it ctrl-alt-delete?

[Imperion1]

Yes.
If its 2k or XP.

[Gait_Keeper]

I'm looking at something wrong

Win Xp Pro, ctrl+alt+del, gives me a lot of info, but not system resources that are free like in win98se

it would say 56% system resources are free when you clicked the last tab

unless Kernel memory is system resources

[bailey]

click on the help files and it will explaine everything

[DallasDon]

ctrl+alt+del brings up the task manager

Select the performance tab, nice little graphs, with info at the bottom

[Gait_Keeper]

thanx DD, cute graphs, but not what I want to know.

No major or minor problem here just curious, BTW DD I upgraded to 1 gig of ram, rapid refund is nice




bailey ; I'll read thur the help section, like I said above no problems going on, I just want to know how much resources all this stuff in the background is eating up, it sure aint eating RAM Im have 735MB's free from 1024Mb's (2x512)

I see a lot of things in the processes list

[bailey]

and in the process list it will show how much each one is useing
also the performance tab will show you how much is free.

if you could be more spicific as to excatly what it is that you need to know, there will be a option to se it.

Nice to see ya, GT. Yeah 1 gig is kinda overkill. Here's a shot of mine with 3 xplorer windows open, Windows media player going, and a photoeditor working.

I rarely use over 256 K of the 1 GIG

hey bailey, it's not the installed RAM I'm talking about and in the process list it gives how much RAM is being used

what I'm talking about is what was "system resources"

in 98se when you right clicked my computer on your desk top, you got a popup with 3 tabs abd if you clicked on the last tab it would tell you how much system resources were free, very different from free RAM

but like I said no problems here just wondering
