I would bet that the 73 percent refers to all memory allocated for *any* purpose, including the disk cache. The screenshot that you provided is not the best way to see everything that's happening in memory. With the task manager open, click on the "Performance" tab, then click on "Open Resource Monitor" down at the bottom of the window. This will open a whole new program. Once that's open, click on the Memory tab, then click on the "Working Set" column header to sort by that column. Increase the size of the window so that a large number of processes with the memory utilization can be seen, adjust the column widths so the information is clear, and make sure that the "Physical Memory" graph and its legend are fully visible. Then grab a new screenshot. I believe that you will find the "Available" number is quite high, even though the "Free" number is very small ... and the difference will be similar to the "Cached" number. If this is what you find, then everything is working exactly as it is supposed to be working. Thanks, Shawn
