Ram usage while installing games and pc freeze
I've had this problem only on windows7, for every game I've installed.
Basically, during the installation all of the RAM is used up, and when it ends the system won't free up the RAM, the PC is dead slow and I have to restart it.
It's not a hardware problem, these are my specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 @ 3.0ghz
RAM DDRII 4GB 800mhz
Motherboard: ASUS P5Qpro
ATI RADEON 4850 Toxic 512mb
Windows 7 RTM x64
has this happened to anyone else?
it's never happened to me with Windows XP, nor Vista, or even Ubuntu.
i used to have 2GB RAM, then when this happened I upgraded to 4 but it made no difference.
