How can I get Win98 to release memory when an application is closed?
Okay, I'll try to spell this out more clearly for you guys.
When I boot into this machine, I have 30Mb of unused physical memory. When I look at the "Properties" of a 20Mb .wav file, the unused physical memory drops to 15Mb. When I close the "Properties" windows, the unused physical memory stays at 15Mb. If I open 20Mb file (for instance, in SndRec32), the unused physical memory drops to 0, and a 5Mb page file is used. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Hence my original question: How can I get Win98 to release memory after an application (or the Properties window) is closed? Note: As I stated as the *first thing* in my original post, adding more RAM is not an option at the current time; please do not waste time by belaboring this point. Thanks, Jon |
