    Having my first computer for 2 months now, I don't know much about RAM and
    ROM other than - the more , the better. So when I looked at this Taskinfo
    program, I interpret it saying that I need more RAM!

    At the top of the screen it said: RAM Usage 99%, Virtual Memory Usage
    18.39%, In ROM and not touched pages 18.10%, and In Swap File 0.30%.

    But after you said that high Idle is good, then I guess that I can relax
    because my Idle is 95.47%.

    The top three memory using programs are: Internet Explorer 22MB
                                                                    Windows
    Explorer 11MB
                                                                    Symantec
    Session 9MB

    The percent number on the Taskinfo taskbar button hovers around 5% then
    shoots to 20% at times.

    Everything is probably normal. I just don't know what I'm seeing.
