Can anybody tell me what is going on in WinXP that causes the Total -
Handles and Threads, Physical Memory - Available and System Cache and
Kernel - Total and Paged to keep changing every second even though the
system is idle and the CPU utilization is 0%. All of the above is from Task
Manager. Also, the disk light keeps flashing ever second or so.
I have tried changing the LargeSystemCache and DisablePagingExecutive
entries to 1 but that did not seem to have any effect.
The system has 2 Megs of memory so it should be happy. WinXP has all the
latest fixes and updates. The system is on a 3 computer home network
connected to the internet via cable using a Motorola modem and an SBC
router. The other systems behave about the same. Is there some setting
that may have gotten changed by one of the utility programs like System
Mechanic 6 that I have used over the last several months? Help would be
appreciated!
