You must add Ram for more Ram!.... You can use a program to "manage" what Ram you have and dedicate it to a particular program. There are several out there.


Here's one way.
Punch control-alt-delete and bring up the Windows Task-manager
Go to "processes"
Sort the processes by clicking on the "image name" column header.
Scroll down until you see the name of the executable file running the program you want boosted up.
Right click on it and reset the priority to "high"
Say "okay"
This will assign all available resources to that procedure.
Make sure you are selecting the correct operation!

Be sure to not run any other programs at the same time and close any unused programs/icons on your taskbar down at the bottom to preserve ram.
Good Luck

You could really do with at least 512 mb RAM if you're running XP; 1 gig is better. You can help make your pc run smoother yourself by using various security programs and other utilities such as Ccleaner.
You have a fast internet connection, but that doesn't give you more RAM.

You have all the tools you need. The companies that write software are different from the companies that build and sell pc's. Thats why the software is extra. You can get lots of free software safely off the web if you know what you're doing.

Here's a list of freeware you can use;

The Windows firewall doesn't stop malware on your pc from dialling out. Zone Alarm firewall is free for personal use and stops unwanted incoming and outgoing traffic. You choose which programs are allowed to access the internet. It's fairly easy to use and updated regularly.

http://www.mozilla.com/ Firefox web browser
http://www.opera.com/ Opera web browser
Instal both these web browsers, turn off javascript on one and use that browser for vising unknown websites. They don't support Active X so thats one less way for problems to get on your pc.

Winpatrol is a handy utility that tracks cookies on your pc and stops unwanted changes to your startup folder.

Spywareblaster works with Internet Explorer and Firefox. It won't uninstall spyware that is already on your pc, but it will prevent hijacks and other malicious changes to your browser.

Remember to update and run all of you anti malware programs at least once a week.

your specs look good. but yuo cant get away with 256meg of ram, Xp uses all of that just to open.

im still using ME, and have 512meg of ram...its rock solid.

if you want more "ram" enlarge the temp/swapfile capacity, it uses the temp file as virtual ram... or go spend 30 quid...
