Re: Memory Full Problem - Help Needed

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Hello Gerry:

In the Task Manager on the Performance Tab:

When I just have 3 windows open:

Commit Charge (K)

Total 305,632
Limit 1,278,300
Peak 344,256

When I have 13 windows open it changed to:

Commit Charge (K)

Total 443,380
Limit 1,278,300
Peak 450,196

Please let me know what you had in mind.

When I open more than a couple additional windows on my pc, the
memory runs
out on my computer.

You're confusing memory, RAM, with hard disk space. They are
completely different things.

I have a Dell Dimension 4550 PC with 111GB on my hard disc of which
I am using 8.37 GB and I have 103 GB free space. I have 512 MB of
RAM. I use Internet Explorer 6 with Windows XP Home Edition SP 2.

I tried these which did not help:

IE > Tools > Internet Options > Programs Tab and selected "Reset Web
Options"
IE > Tools > Internet Options > Advanced Tab and selected "Restore
Defaults"

Here are the problems when my memory runs out:

When I try to right click nothing happens. If I can open an
additional window, I get a window that is blank. When I click on
a link on a website,
and it opens up a popup box, it is blank, and I try to close it
at the red x
in the upper right corner, I get an error message that says:

"Microsoft Internet Explorer - The window is busy. Closing it may
cause some
problems. Do you want to close it anyway? OK CANCEL"

When I click OK, the window does not close. The only solution is to
close all the windows on my desktop, delete the temporary internet
files, compress
the old files, and start all over again. I use "Disc Cleanup" to
get more space by compressing old files and deleting temporary
files. I cannot even run this utility when the windows are open,
and I cannot close windows sometimes, so I have to shut down
Internet Explorer and restart my computer.

Sometimes I get an error message that says CHATCI - Runtime Error
7: Out of
Memory.

What exactly is that error message? What exactly is running?
What do you have installed called "CHATCI"?

I can't find any reference to "chatci" on Google, at least not in
English, so it's possible that you have some malware that is bogging
the system down.


Can anyone help with this problem?

Your system problems are not related to disk space, and clearing
space won't help. They likely also aren't really related to RAM
faults, but instead some software is taking over the system and
crashing. It's possibly malware of some type.

Get and install Process Explorer, and learn to identify what is
using CPU cycles.
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/Utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx

Also, restart the system from power-off, and go directly to this web
site: http://housecall.trendmicro.com

and let it scan your system.
