Increase Pc Ram !

1). Start any application, say Word. Open
some large documents. 2). Press CTRL+SHIFT
+ESC to open Windows Task Manager and
click Processes tab and sort the list in
descending order on Mem Usage. You will
notice that WINWORD.EXE will be
somewhere at the top, using multiple MBs of
memory. 3). Now switch to Word and simply
minimize it. (Don't use the Minimize All
Windows option of the task bar). 4). Now go
back to the Windows Task Manager and see
where WINWORD.EXE is listed. Most probably
you will not find it at the top. You will
typically have to scroll to the bottom of the
list to find Word. Now check out the amount
of RAM it is using. Surprised? The memory
utilization has reduced by a huge amount. 5).
Minimize each application that you are
currently not working on by clicking on the
Minimize button & you can increase the
amount of available RAM by a substantial
margin. Depending upon the number and
type of applications you use together, the
difference can be as much as 50 percent of
extra RAM. In any multitasking system,
minimizing an application means that it
won't be utilized by the user right now.
Therefore, the OS automatically makes the
application use virtual memory & keeps bare
minimum amounts of the code in physical
RAM.
