Physical Memory Loss???

[MrT]

Total Physical Memory: 128 MB
Free Physical Memory: 29 MB
What's up with this...I have tried everything to correct this by closing anything that would be running in the backround (virus scanner etc.) but still have this annoying problem with MEMORY..
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

most people don't know that windows has disk cache sort of like Smartdrive, that will take up all available ram, unless it is manual set to a maximum size. Try adding this in your system.ini file.

[vcache]
MinFileCache=16384
MaxFileCache=16384
(optionally)ChunkSize=512

If you change the size, remember that it must be a divisible of 1024, 16 Mb is 16*1024=16384

Use "System monitor" to verify.

Here's a picture of mine
