I disagree with the use of any Ram freeing software but you can try it. Vabogee, when you are running your tables, how many processes are running in Task Manager ? I agree with Albert but I would say report back to us on # of processes. You really should only need about 35 total processes running and if it is much more than that, I would check out everything that is running that doesn't need to be. I would first check to see if you can shut the service down to eliminate some of the processes that are useless. If that doesn't work, you can use Hijack This and then delete the run entries that don't have any reason to be running. YOu should be very cautious when doing this, though. Don't want to mess up your computer. I've never messed up mine, though.
