High unexplained RAM usage
I have already formatted PC several times but there was no improvement in speed. I have been getting this weird problem with Windows 7, and I apologize if this has been posted and solved before, but I couldn't find anything. So, I don't remember when this started, but my RAM usage is upwards to 80% with 2 GB of RAM. And I am currently running a lot of programs, true, but closing them all does nothing. It's as if Windows is failing to eliminate the resources used by the programs even after closing. The RAM is around 50% on start-up (which seems insanely high...) And it won't go way all that much even if I end every process I can. Anybody have any clues to fixing this? It never happened before when I was using win 7 on the same machine.
System Config:
Processor- Intel (R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M 380 @2.53GHz
RAM- 2GB (Usable 1.74GB)
System Type - 64 Bit Operating System
Thanks
