Memory LOW!

Saturday, November 3, 2001 by Nher Hernandez | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Before I talk about my problem, I just wanna tell you all guys(all the people who have uploaded/created/shared their stuff and also the creator/and staff of this site) that you've guys have done a wonderful job in the computer community. This site helps a lot of people including myself making their computers fit their needs. But anyways, there's one thing I want to ask you all. When I installed "desktopx" and applied the settings, there's one thing I noticed, my memory dropped from 89% to 60%. Does this program really takes that much memory? or it's just my computer. I appreciate if anyone can respond to me as soon as they can

Nher,
It might help if you post the specs of your system....OS, ram, CPU etc....
Most GUI customizing systems/methods/proggies do have a 'higher' hit on resources than running in a basic default Windows configuration, but most will not be too heavy to handle...

The memory usage is easy to explain. All skins/themes rely heavily on bitmaps, which sucks up (loads of) memory. But who cares about memory these days.
