Morning all, a newbie here, still kicking & screaming into the 21stC.

I've been getting pop ups, with a little, yellow, warning triangle, from my PC saying that I don't have much virtual memory left. And then, while saving a Word doc yesterday, another warning message to say that I had little RAM left.

I don't know what either of these means, except that there's a problem with the memory! I'm running Windows XP, but don't know about my RAM capacity.

Where do I go to find my RAM status? Can I clean up (defreg??) my machine, would that help.

Any advice gratefully received.

Thanks.

Emma.
