100% ram usage please help
Hi I have built a pc which works really well, playing any game at full settings etc but after some time (and possibly only after resuming from sleep) the system will suddenly go to 100% ram usage and everything will grind to a halt.
the cpu will hover around 5-10% usage and this can happen with lots of webpages open or none.
I opened task manager and had a look at the processes and they dont seem to add up to the amount of ram being used.
I started resource monitor and here are some of thethings you can see,
the hard faults/sec is very high 100 nearly all the time, the following processes had 10-15 hardfaults /sec,
svchost (x2)
firefox
iexplorer(not open and process was greyed out but 2 instances)
if i restart my comp it will then be lightning fast and i can open loads of stuff close it and there wont be a problem, how can i find what is causing this?
EDIT
forgot to mention my system its running windows 7 64bit has e8400 3ghz duo core, 2x2gig ram, hd4890 graphix, extra big fan on processor, sata hd etc etc
