However, I don't know what your problem is. Be sure to provide more information when you post to the XP forums if there are issues that you are experiencing. The information you've provided from Task
Manager does not indicate any problem at all. The running programs memory usage that you listed appear perfectly normal.
You have 3.5 gigs of total RAM (probably 4 Gigs, but XP can only use 3.5 Gigs). 2.6 Gigs of available memory while programs are running is perfectly normal.
