Hello,

Been having a bit of a computer problem for the past
while. Computer (roughly 1 year old, P4 - 1.5ghz -
256 mb ram) tends to be behave like if it was out of
ram.

-- Can hardly browse my folders. Some of them (which
might have 100+ files in them) don't open at all. However
if I open files though another programme (for example
pictures through MGI Photo Suite) or I reset all my folders, don't have a problem.

-- Can hardly run some of the programmes which are heavy
users of RAM. FS2002, FlyII etc just won't load.

-- Can't even run the system information. Get the message
that there isn't enough RAM to run WMI (windows
management instrumentation).

Also tends to crash a lot. Definitely isn't programmes running
in the background that are taking up the RAM. Ctrl-alt-deleted every programme and still have the same problem.

Been having that problem for the past 2-3 months but am lazy having my PC sent away for 2-3 weeks .
