I boot up and slowly the memory commit charge grow and grow and grow until it
reach the paging file limits... And there is nothing running, no software
open!! Strangely, in Task Manager/Processes the memory usage total is
normal!! The computer is terribly slow and suddenly "Out of memory/paging
file"....
Anyone can help me?
What do you mean by "the memory usage total"? Are you talking about the Performance tab?
Open the Task Manager and click the Processes tab. Select View->Select Columns and check Memory Usage, Peak Memory Usage, and
Virtual Memory Size. Now sort the list of processes according to memory usage by clicking the Mem Usage column heading and scroll
to the end to see what the largest one is. Are there one or more processes that have a lot of memory? Repeat for the VM Size and
Peak Memory Usage columns.
Did you find anything to explain what is using up all your memory? If so, what? If not, then something else is going on. Check to
see if you have a rootkit on your system (there's a few rootkit checkers but none are foolproof yet.) Also, try checking for
malware with things like SpyBot, AdAware, CWShredder, HiJackThis, BHODemon, etc.
How many processes are running?
