Maybe it's just Windows?
Im really amazed by how much sys recources vista is taking on my machine. I have a core2duo and 2GB RAM.
When i boot the machine, let everything settle, on an idle computer, it says that it is using 42% of my ram! the only added services i have are avg free and gmail notifier. Is this common in vista, or is it something wrong with my comp? Are there any unneccessary services that i can turn off to free up some memory?
thanks,bj
