Is there any quick way I can boost my system resources. It about 63% on my desktop and 77% on my laptop.

Close any extra programs running by using the CTRL-ALT-DELETE command. Add ram.

128MB of RAM...<$50.
A usable computer...priceless.

:geek:

I've closed virtually every program on CTL-ALT-DEL and am still running at 78%?? Help:mad:

How much RAM do you have? What's the processor speed?

Why do u want to boost your resources Are you getting error messages? While Ctrl-Alt-Delete will remove system resources temporarily, to remove them perminately, you need to run msconfig and uncheck whichever programs you don't want to run in the background (If you are nontechnical, have a technical person help you). This will prevent them from loading up each time you reboot your computer.

I suggest going out and getting 128mb of RAM from Best Buy or somthing. That $20 will really help :fez: :geek:

I concur with DF. The only way you are going to get any performance boost is to install more RAM in the computer. I bought a friend of mine a GB of RAM for their birthday cause thier computer was seriously dragging behind and it improved things dramatically!


I am in NO way implying that you need that much RAM, they do video editing so they really needed it. 128 or even 256 should be sufficent for you.

I concur times 3! 64MB is BARE MINIMUM ram for a system. And, that is mainly if you are only using the computer for surfing the net. I would get more ram.
