Hello. I have read all the responses to your problem, and though I think they are all good suggestions, they haven't worked for me. I have Windows XP and it keeps telling me that I only have 17 mb left of RAM and then maybe going up to 39 after a fresh restart, but there is absolutely nothing running. It is very frustrating and I have done the msconfig and all that jazz. If you hear anything, please let me know! Gateway tech support couldn't do much else for me. Francie
