[Mem usage problems]

[Maloney]

My comp keep emitting a siren noise to let me know the mem usage is at 100%



It just seems that everything I do sucks up uber memory and I cant seem to solve it!!

I recommend that you scan your system for spyware and adware. If you don't have SpyBot or Adaware installed then I would recommend that you download them and install them and scan your PC to remove anything they might find:

SpyBot = http://beam.to/spybotsd
Adaware = http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/

In addition it be a good idea to do an online virus scan:

HouseCall = http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
Panda = http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/com/

This is more of an OS situation. Moving to XP forum.

seems weird that msiexec.exe is taking up so much CPU time, and is listed twice. Here's the process info

Process File: msiexec or msiexec.exe
Process Name: Windows Installer Component
Description: Windows Installer Component that is used to install new programs that use Windows Installer package files (MSI).

Unless you were installing a program when that screenshot was taken, i'd say you have a virus or spyware that is masking itself under a valid filename, or have a major problem with your OS.
