something is hogging my resources ....
Win98SE, 512MB RAM, P3-667 platform.
After operating for a while, suddenly things start to go wacky. For instance, fonts in Win message boxes change. Or I go to save an Excel spreadsheet and I get a "not enough resources" message, which is sometimes truncated due presumably to ... not enough resources. On boot-up, Eudora is the only task electively started. A Ctrl-Alt-Del shows the following other running tasks: Explorer Rundll32 Stimon Systray If I initialise SystemMonitor, it indicates about 213MB of RAM as allocated when nothing (else) is running. 50 kernel threads, processor 50% now with Agent running (otherwise this would be somewhat lower). Swapfile size 50MB. Locked memory 143MB. If I remove Eudora from the startup process, the figures look a tad better but not dramatically so. Have done a virus scan and all reports clean. Machine is networked using DHCP via a NAT router. Can anyone suggest what else to look at/for in finding the underlying cause? |
