Memory on the computer


Question Posted Monday April 21 2008, 11:32 pm

Ok so this might sound really stupid, like a common sense question probably. Anyway,

How do you make more memory on your computer? Not buy more memory, but like I want to run photoshop and I dont have enough (RAM) memory to run it, cause it keeps closing out and I get a pop-up saying something like "not enough (RAM) memory to run this program"

Any ideas?

If you run PSD (photoshop) under 256 mb of ram it is better for you to add new ram that will cost you $40 for 1 gb ddr1, $30 for 1gb ddr2 PC667mhz or $50 for ddr2 PC850mhz!
finds one that is the same type and brands with your existing rams!
but if you have 512mb or more, the problems is your PC already infected by some malware that use most of your ram space or even firewall or other security software! when you works with PSD make sure u are offline and shut all aplication such as antivirus, firewall etc!

hope that could help u!

You will probably have to buy more. RAM is completely different from storage, deleting stuff won't improve your RAM. RAM optimizers will make it much worse. Read my article here for more info:

RAM is very cheap right now. You can easily buy 1GB, and maybe even 2GB for under $100. Buying some would be a good investment.

If that doesn't work, you can try installing software to increase RAM by downloading it off the internet.

If that doesn't work, I'd have to buy more memory =]


Hope to have helped!!
