I have a P 200 K-6 with 32 mg EDO, I have
CD-ROM, Iomega Zip drive,
Printer, Scanner, Sound Card. I have Office
97, Core Official 7, Photo
Shop 2.0 and 4.0 installed. I am listing what
I would consider the major
software that could possibly any problems with
memory. I am using Fat 32
and have a program called Agent 97  to help
clean up memory leaks, if I
remember correctly. My main problem at the
moment is when I go to run
and type command and then at the c:\> mem, I
get the settings off of the
Conventional 640k that 72k is being used and
that 568k is free. If I go
out to Dos and type mem at the c:\>, I get a
different reading of 112k
being used and 528 free. My first question is
which of these two
readings are correct, MS-DOS Prompt or DOS. My
second question is there a
way to allocate the memory, also is there any
programs that you can
optimize the memory on a 32 bit system, in
comparison as memmaker on the
16 bit system. Another question, I am going to
add a minimal of 32 mg to
my system to bring it up to 64 mg, will that
help the Conventional 640k,
if not is there any way to increase that
amount. If I were to add two 32
mg in stead of two 16 mg of memory, bringing
it up to 96 mg. Would I
have to do a reinstall for Windows to
reallocate the memory. I am having
memory problems without running applications,
just using the browser, I
get a red icon from Agent 97 stating memory
resources are dangerously
low. I can only scan about 4-5 photos at a
time and have to restart
Windows, is adding memory is the solution.? My
PC has became very slow.
I would appreciate any help or advise. Sorry
for so many questions, just
trying to get it it all in one note.


Thanks
Marlin Kline
