Memory managers
I have Googled for memory manager reviews, but they are far from helpful.
Anyone have any thoughts on whether a memory manager (Cyberlat RamCleaner, TweakRam) really helps performance or just uses up resources? Running W98SE, 256MB, PII350MZ, IBM PC300PL. Thanks, Dan Hacker -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- Madness takes its toll. Please have exact change. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---

Memory managers
Stay away from them. All hype and no reality.

Memory managers
That was the conclusion I was coming to. But they have such "pretty"

Memory managers
Memory managers are rated as poor by those in the know.
With the price of ram so low, why not just buy and install more. What kind of problems are you having that makes you think you are having a memory problem? Perhaps then, someone in this ng could help you out. "Rubyjack" wrote in message ... I have Googled for memory manager reviews, but they are far from helpful.

Memory managers
That's about all they have :-) Snake oil, pure snake oil.

Memory managers
Thanks for the reply.
I am not currently having problems. But when I had only 64MB for W98SE, it creaked and groaned. So I bought Cyberlat RamCleaner ($5.00) to help with the problem. I have since upgraded to 256MB. However, I still have CRC running on my computer. I asked for opinions on memory managers because CRC didn't seem to be doing anything in particular. So I was curious as to what the knowledgeable consensus was -- useful utility/resource waster. It appear that I blew a WHOLE FIVE BUCKS on the program :-) Dan -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- Madness takes its toll.
