    Sony Vaio Z using too much RAM


    Recently, my computer has been using way more memory than it should be using. When I first boot up and just have a couple applications open its already using 4 gb. And since this has been happening I've noticed significant drops in performance, especially playing games.

    I took screenshots of the amount of RAM it said I was using and then the list of the all the processes it said I had running. I added up all of the list and it was 2,137,406 kb when on the performance window it said I was using 5.46 gb so I don't know where that additional 3.36 gb is coming from.

    Within Task Manager...
    ...while looking at the tab named Processes
    ...you will want to click on the button named "Show processes from all users".

    That button is on the lower left part of the Task Manager window.
