Windows XP Pro PF Usage

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.perform_maintain (More info?)

Hi,

I have a dell optiplex gx260, with 1GB of ram and a P4 2.0 processor. This
computer worked fine with all my apps while running Win2k Pro. I performed a
clean install of Win XP Pro and reinstalled all my apps, now under the
performance tab in the task manager window my computer always shows PF Usage
instead of Mem Usage like it used to before. Please keep in mind that I am
running the exact versions of the apps I previously used and I also checked
for virus and spyware and I have none. Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

Like this? Windows 2000 Task Manger.

Windows XP Task Manger has PF Usage instead.

I couldn't find a picture.

Interesting, Task Manager has always displayed PF Usage for me. win2k
task manger dose how ever show mem usage, why did microsoft deside to
change this? I have absalutly no idea, and i bet no one else dose
either.
