Hi gang.

Something a little strange is happening.

I am running 98SELite on a 2GHz machine with 1GB of RAM. I have
the following lines in system.ini and everything runs fine
(but... see later):

[vcache]
MinFileCache=0
MaxFileCache=524288

(another section)
MinPagingFileSize=204800
MaxPagingFileSize=204800

(I haven't used ANY of the swap file since I put in the 1GB RAM
:-)

Here's the weirdness:

Do some more Googling. System Resources is not dependent on the amount of
ram.
Hopefully you will find which system or progream is using up your System
Resources.
Even desktop icons use System Resources.

I seem to be running out of system resources all the time and
quite rapidly - much more so than when I still had just 256 MB
of RAM. After about ½ hr on the web, I get to about 20% on the
1st and 3rd resource and sometimes I have to reboot a few
minutes later.

I use Opera and I have started using FireFox 2.0.0.18 because
Opera crashes a lot with the stupid SWF plugin, although I still
prefer its features and I am very accustomed to it.

If I stay off the web, no problem with sys resources.

Does anyone have any idea WHY this has started happening and
what I can do to fix it?
Any help would be most appreciated, as usual.
