Just want to know if WinXP handles memory well. I noticed that some games
run much better with mem-manager turned off. Mem-manager came with WinCleaner
complete pc care. I have had no problems with letting XP handle ( manage )
768 megs ram w/ pent. 4 processor. Is it better to just let WinXP do it's
own memory management ?

Hi,

Let WinXP handle it and avoid memory management utilities like the plague.
It is significantly better than its predecessors in handling virtual memory.
