How Much Memory Have I Left in my PC?
Not sure how to work this out from this?
I did a screen shot but it came up as a link below:
file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/RAY/Desktop/memory%20pc.bmp
If this not enough detail let me know and I will try download more info.

Not sure because I don't think you can add attachments on this board
Anyway, right click taskbar with start menu on down the bottom, task manager
Go to the performance tab, top Total = Installed Memory, Available = How much free
If you want to see how much is installed, just right click my computer and select properties.Owner of andrewhope.co.uk, hate cars and love them

Joe public can't see the images! You need to upload them into photobucket or similar.
Right click the toolbar at the bottom, click on task manager, click on performance. All the information is there for you to see.Estate Agent, Web Designer & All Round Geek!0 -
Your screen shot is on your own computer ( C: etc)
You will need to upload it somewhere and paste the link.
Why not go to (My) Computer and right click on the C: drive, properties and note the GB Used and Free
I'm assuming you mean hard drive space rather than memory0 -
Theres two type of memory in your computer. Do you mean Hard Drive Space or Ram? Ram does not run out it's Random Access Memory That is dumped everytime you restart your computer. Hard drive memory however does fill up. Go to "My Computer" Right click on what usually is "Local Disc C:" click Properties Then you should see a graph pink Meaning Free space blue meaning used space. If I have confused you then visit my site and contact me.
Stop trying to plug your site....
Secondly. You have something to learn then if you think RAM can't run out. Never heard of a page file (aka Virtual Memory)
You could easily beast the RAM on any computer if you open up enough programs or have a badly coded program with a memory leak, it would just take longer. The quickest way to eat RAM would just be using Video editing or video recording programs since they're memory hungry
What you meant to say is RAM memory is volatile, so it's not stored when the computer is switched off whereas a hard disk is permanently stored because it's magnetically written.
Sorry I'm in an iffy mood today

No, I didn't. It's still there in your post #8 as in the original post in #4. Maybe they don't mind him advertising.

Sorry I was reading your follow up quote, edited now
I doubt they even know tbh. Normally I wouldn't care less about it although it is annoying new users instantly trying to promote their business in first post. However someone who claims memory cannot run out clearly knows nothing in my mind
Anyway, ranting aside. Back to gaming
