Hi, soo i recently came up with an idea to invest 10$ and get my old Pc running with a system of a motherboard: octek rhino kt 266 a/ ASE
Amd 1900+ 1.46Ghz
Ram :512MB 400Mhz ddr I
inno3D geforce fx5200 128Mb Vram
160Gb Samsung IDE H.D.D.
and i am now ussing it as a storage and server mostly for torrent downloading and now its the first 24h its running but allready had a fault when i left it for about 3 hours running no programs exept torrent there was some ram missing becuz something was eating them first it was only 122Mb free when normal is 312Mb the after about 1h it gave me an error out of memory and i had to restart it now it is all ok for now (about 30min.)
i will see how it performs on longer periods of time.
Questions:
#1.were did the ram go? task manager didn't showd anything consuming them the instalation of win xp is brand new it can't be viruses
#2.is it safe to leave it on per night? can it catch fire or something?
P.s Thanks for answering stupid quaestion but i didn't had a computer that would run for a long periods of time non-stop and expecialy that Old
