Valerie - while bits and bytes are counted in multiples of 8 (16, 32...128,512) it is easiest to think of the KB/MB conversion in terms of the metric system. So move the decimal place for 129,524 over 3 places and round to the nearest standard multiple of 8. Starting with 129,524 you move the decimal over and get 129 and then round to 128 (since the next standard multiple is 512). Hope that helps with the next time you need to figure it out.

Thanks, that helped me a lot! If you don't mind me asking were can I go to troubleshoot cpu constantly reaching the 100% mark. It seems to does it all the time when I open up graphical application such as paint shop pro, windows draw and print shop pro? once again, thanks.

I don't know how to solve that one - I use MemTurbo to keep my Ram free.

From the site: MemTurbo increases your system performance by making more RAM available 
for your applications and the operating system. It also defragments your physical 
RAM, increasing the efficiency of your CPU and Motherboard caches. MemTurbo also 
recovers memory leaks from poorly behaved applications and flushes unused libraries 
and DLLs temporarily out to disk, making more room for your favorite games or applications.

I think it has a free trial. Good luck.
