When I go to startprogramsaccessoriessystem toolsSystem info and then look at the total physical memory displayed, is that my ram memory and is the available physical is that what is left at the time I am viewing it? If it is what is a good ratio to have there. It appears that I have 256mb and as I write this missive I have 50mb left. Is that all the stuff that is running in the background. Thanks

Yes on the OS (XP Home) Clint and thanks for the input. I have a friend that is using XP Home with 128m of ram and she uses AOL 9. Often dabbles in pictures and I believe the Ram would be better with 256mb. She is using a laptop Dell 2100 with a processor speed of
1ghz. How much of the stuff in the background can you get rid of without making the system suffer? I have turned off some of it but of coarse M$ send their message each time you start up. I know we need AV in the background and I think this version of AOL has Mcfee.
