Re: RAM usage

Thank you for replying to my question. I have gone to the sites that you
provided. The Intel page shows the examples that I provided in my question. I
do not have an Intel processor on my computer. It is an AMD processor. Would
it be ok to remove these Intel examples shown in my question.

Thank you for your assistance.

having 512 megs of ram
is a very respectable amount
for virtually all needs.

if anything, a well written
game may complain that it
needs more ram and not less
as you mentioned.

The amount of RAM on my computer is 512MB. I am having a problem with
some
games on my PC such that they will not operate correctly. Contacting
the game
owner, they tell me I have too much RAM in use. When I go to "DXDIAG"
I find
448MB of RAM with 403 used and 682 available. Checking the direct x
listing I
find I have at least 200 of them and do not know what they are for and
so do
not want to delete any until I know what they are and if I need them.
I have
tried removing items from the task bar which has helped reduce the
usage but
it is still too high.What do the games have to do with RAM usage when
they
have already been downloaded onto my computer. I expect that they are
on the
disk and would have nothing to do with RAM usage. What else can be
done to
reduce RAM usage. Also where can I find a list of all direct x names
which
will explain what they are.Most of these arrived on my computer on
8/4/04
which I believe is when SP2 came out.Examples:- ir41_32.ax,
ir41_qc.dll,
ir41_qcx.dll, ir50 same as ir41, ksproxy.ax. I believe ir 41 and ir 50
have
something to do with AOL which I do not have on my computer and
believe that
I can delete them both. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in
advance.
