I will have to go back into add/remove and see if it is still listed.. could have swore i removed it

if it does not state 64bit version then it will be the 32 bit version if you did have the 64 bit version of windows it would state * Microsoft Windows XP 64-Bit Edition Like it would say * Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition * Microsoft Windows XP Professional also in the same location it does tell you your computer info below that and if you have a 64 bit processor it will state that there as mine does. The standard fare for windows has been 32 bit so it did not state that since it would be obvious but now that there are so many 64 bit systems out it will state if it is 64 bit. 32-bit and 64-bit Windows: frequently asked questions you can get to the same info by going to start>control panel>system, leads you to the same system properties box. and yes the display properties are not what was being asked about, different item.

cynic, do you know what the paging file is? Reading your post, I doubt it. Simply put, the only thing correct in your post is that RAM is volatile. That is, the information it holds is lost when the power is turned off. You're relationship analogy is flawed and indicates a lack of understanding of the architecture involved. Of course adding RAM makes the computer work faster! Any time you reduce or eliminate the caching of information to a hard disk you increase the speed at which the system can operate. People, this is rudimentary level stuff. I build computer systems. There are really only three ways to look at the needs of a certain system: 1. Bare minimum - This would be the absolute minimum system requirements which would allow the hardware and software to boot. With a system like this, you're probably better off with pencil and paper. I seriously doubt anyone here has a system at this level or you wouldn't be reading this without needing to reboot a few times, though some may be close.. 2. Functioning - Here is where I see a majority of systems. These systems may be meeting the hardware and software minimum requirements or be slightly ahead of them (recommended minimum requirements). This system can function for many years providing the user does not upgrade applications without upgrading hardware. As time goes by, these systems will not be able to run the newer operating systems, more powerful applications or run the latest gaming software. Remember, you can still be using an original pentium with 128MB EDO ram if you use win95 and the original windows version of photoshop. You may even feel this is "peppy". It's all relative. 3. Current - A current system is one which includes the latest technology and can run, without much difficulty, the most demanding operating system and software. Production is much higher since the time it takes to perform the same tasks as a functioning system is extremely reduced. As long as there are no bugs from new hardware or software, these systems operate at peak efficiency and do not run into some of the frustrating problems a functioning computer has. Owners of these systems can either let it stay as is until it becomes, with age, a "functioning" system or they can stay on the curve by upgrading until the technology changes enough to require a new system. The choice is yours. I do not recommend a "bare minimum" system and I strongly suggest that for production sake, you keep your "functioning" system as high above the "recommended minimum" as possible. We let, or I let, this topic ge way off, I apologize for that. You originally were asking about "clearing" Ram. If your system uses DRAM, then the memory controller in the operating system suffice. Considering the context of the original post, I do not think you meant this. What I think you need to do is upgrade.

Hi there, I just wanted to respond to this post since I emailed someone that didn't necessarily have their email address on gardenweb. Sometimes when I search for certain things, like "white cabinets," a ton of posts with pictures of kitchens that do not necessarily appear in finished kitchens blog show up. Many times these are pictures off of photobucket. In one particular instance, I went back to find those photobucket pictures to show my husband, and I simply searched in google "GW's screen name kitchen" His or her email came up on google, and I emailed them asking if they minded sharing where they got their cabinets since they are local to Chicago, where I live. I would not be offended if someone emailed me asking me that, and so I didn't think anyone else would be offended either. Anyway, I just wanted to share how it is I came upon getting someone's email...actually quite unintendedly. hth, Pebbles81
