Solutions: Reining in your system resources
Q. My system resources at bootup are about 87 percent free. But after I run certain applications, I often find resources down to 25 percent free or lower, sometimes to zero. I gather from PC World's Pitstop (www.pcpitstop.com) that some applications don't return system resources when they are closed, resulting in so-called resource leakage. Indeed, when I restart my computer, resources go back to 87 percent free. But I don't want to restart my computer all the time. How can I fix this? I have 256 megabytes of random access memory and Windows Me.
