You Need More RAM

Word Count: 126

May 6th, 2008 | Alan | Computers and Internet

One of my friends is lacking memory - not memory in the mind but computer memory. She was telling me that her computer was running so slow, almost to the point of being frozen. I asked her to press CTRL+ALT+DEL and tell me what programs were running. Just two were, IE and Microsoft Word. IE was only using about 89KB and Microsoft Word was only using about 20KB, very sad considering that my FireFox uses about 150KB with all my tabs open, and I still run smoothly. Apparently, even those two processes on her computer were using 99% of her CPU.

If you are in a situation where your computer runs so slow even with just a couple things running, then you probably need more RAM. ;)
