restart windows per day
On an Average....I never Reboot at all.
Just Start and shutdown Each time.
It depends on how much my family uses it..... if I'm the only one that uses it, it only crashes about once per day, but if my brother uses it, seems like about 5x+
youre kucky active!
what does your brother do dennis?
I'm very unkucky...I have to restart nearly 10x per day and all my resources go down the drain :(
I usually have to restart my computer once a week. I keep it on all the time! It usually never crashes, i have win2k.
I don't know what he does, but IE always crashes when he's on, or after he gets off, and eventually windows does too.....
maybe he visits some very resource hogginn sites
my comp is kucky that it's still in one piece, normal days i would have thrown it out of the window.

Well Parksie...you should not discount the fact that
you are a hard core programmer and a lot of code
you write - even your computer fails to understand it! :D
Too true, Active :)
He'd have to visit about 50 of them.... I have 512MB RAM....Quote:

Memory does not make any difference to resources -- you'll run out just as fast.
Ok, I was hoping somebody was going to say that... I remember hearing that they were different, but I didn't know in what ways.........?
yep
and IE is a very resource leaking app
in what ways are they different?
I never restart or shutdown my pc but It ends up crashing bout 10-20 times a day on win98
Greater the Memmory Greater should be the effort form
the OS to maintain and control it.
For Example Maintaining a SWAP space becomes
Resource Hungry with The amount of RAM you have.
What are resources, then, if it's not memory?
dunno, but you can monitor them with
C:\WINDOWS\RSRCMTR.EXE
which says:
System: 9%
User: 9%
GDI: 14%
i know theyre not proportional to amount of memory used, and seem to be proportional to amount of handles used.
Dennis you think Memmory is the only Resource ?
I tend to think.. Processing Time is the Most Important.
processing time? I meant system resources.
I thought I had problems, geeeeez. Win98 crashes maybe 5 times a day. But when it does, it does big time. It seems IE 5.5, Geoff's VB ForumBrowser, Outlook and VB do not sit happily together (plus the mryiad of things in the system tray - 11!)
11 things in the systray? i have 5 currently and 2 of them at startup. I have usually like 15 browsers open, that's probably what eats up all resources, but i know i can relogin and most of them will return, but the thing needs restart once in a while anyway
Yep, 11. McAfee Virus, Norton Personal Firewall, Mouse, Adaptec CD writer, Mixer control, Desktop contents, SideWinder control panel, Virus scan scheduler, My LAN Messenger, SB Audio HQ, and DUN.
I remember that win98 & se have a problem with handling memory >128mb. My computer only crashes if I try to run other tasks while running UT.
resource meter, creative mixer, trillian and sonork currently. Theyre all light except for trillian, but it's nothing like icq
Really, i've got 320MB, might explain a lot. I thought it could handle 4GB?!?!Quote:

I got the most stupid error message earlier after it had a bit of a "turn". It said I didn't have enought memory to run FreeCell!!!! I mean, yeah right.
It's probably not JUST memory. I only have 32 MB and my computer hardly EVER crashes (except when I run my Memory program - for eact byte in memory zeromemory byte :))
I think the HD "swap file" (win386.swp) and the processor has something to do with it.
Anyway, 24+5=1 (6 days/crash).
My computer very rarely crashes, i think it is becasue i have ME and 96 mb of ram, though i want some more, i only have 4 things in the systray aswell, this does help
though i do wonder about the BSOD when i get them, instead of saying that something.vxd caused a memory error or something like that, i just seem to get the template, all it says is .......... has caused an error, press any key to continue
strange huh ??
Thats windows Me for ya...
I happen to have a cool brown screen of death once in a while thanks to Yonatan :p
Oi stop taking the piss out of my typing young man! :)Quote:

Sorry mummy...... :p
I should think so and all! I'll forgive you - this time :p
Mine crashes whenever I disconnect from the net and try do connect a second time. Or... when I have about 20 IE windows opened (nasty web-pages that multiply themselves). My buds are very nice to me... :rolleyes:
About that... thanks some of you. I think some of my 'buddies' liked that c:/con/con stuff :p
Yep...it's a great trick :) I'm a vicious bastard and am STILL killing people's systems with it :D
Anyway, what that C:/con/con stuff makes to the computer? I tried it once...:eek: Did I make something permanent?
forgive me too!Quote:
