Hi, i have a problem with Windows Vista Memory Manager. I Have 2Gb or ram DDR2 1150Mhz. When i start Windows is use 70% of the physical memory then when it finish to load windows it drop to 60%. After a couple of minute it going to 70% then 75%, 80%, 85%, 90% and 95% and it stay there for a couple a minute then it drop back to 70% and sometime it drop to 50%. Then again it doing the same thing again. I must say that it it those that i am listening to music only. That problem make my computer lag sometime. I check on the net and it said that it might be Windows SuperFetch that cause the problem. If anyone of you have any comment on the subject that might help me to resolve this conflict, don't be shy to tell me.

It's Superfetch pre-caching things the system thinks you will use, so they launch faster. Superfetch surrenders memory to active programs just as if it were empty, so from a performance perspective the impact is very minimal. But if you don't like the display to show usage, you can shut Superfetch off in your preferences.
