Re: Maximum Number of Processes

Does Windows Xp have a limit on the number of processes that can be run ? I dont want to think so but I seem to have a problem running more than 90 processes . I have a dual core desktop and about 37 Internet explore pages running . Once I try to open any more webpages or software it wont do anything unless I close some webpages . when I look at my task manager I notice that XP wont let me open more than 90 processes . My cpu usage is only at 5% even with all these processes running . So does anybody know if this is an XP limitation or is there something I can do about it .Thanks

I can only run 254 cmd shells at one time. I think though that number of processes is limited by hardware resources before a limit in the OS.

37 IE windows is going to eat alot of memory, regardless of what is displayed. Maybe memory is your limiting factor.
