Locating Memory?

Hello, i've been downloading a lot on my computer lately,and i'm trying to locate how much memory I have left on my computer,so that I can buy more if needed. Can anyone tell me what I need to click on to find out how much memory I have left?

If you're talking about how much hard drive space you have left open "My Computer" and highlight (single left-click) the C:\ (or any other) Drive listed. Once highlighted look to the left of the window, it'll tell you how big the drive is, how much is used, and how much is free.

If you're talking about RAM then right click on "My Computer" and select "properties". Once that window opens itll tell you how much system RAM you have installed.

(I thought this might help it does not improve on what PartieHonteuse said to you- which I also found helpful and learnt something from it :) )

You could use the Crucial System Scanner to determine your memory needs. Link below

I think the "average user" with XP can get by 512 RAM just fine. While XP can get "by" with a lot less, 512 seems to be the recommended amount.

If you are into games/graphics/video editing consider buying more.

Cheers :)

well if u are into gamimg i advise to have at least 724RAM

How do you come up with 724 of RAM? Do they now have stick of 212 RAM to add to 512 - ?

oop's sry basementgeek i knew i was alittle off on that number!

If you knew you were off a little why did you post that number ?

If you want a job working on PC -"opp's sry" just is not going to get it.
Yes I was 18, four decades ago - but you are beginning to become a fountain of misinformation.

Now come on Sevuas_0, I have seen your Avatar and I have read your messages and some of your help, and I happen to know you are from the Planet Zannuttzi 8) :) Just joking mate, Cheers Jim.

i ment 768! sry guys.

768RAM should be ok for gaming

Thanx for the help everyone,i'm going to try some of the suggestions out now :D

Please let us know how it goes, or if you need further assistance.

Thank you PartieHonteuse I can now see how much free space I have on my Computer :D

It says I have:
Free Space: 170 GB and Total Size: 186 GB

Is that a good or bad thing?

That's pleanty of free space. Typically, you want at least 25-30% of the HDD free to ensure the best performance.

Cheers.
