High memory consumption with a large unpaged area
High memory consumption with a large unpaged area
The issue with your non-paged pool is causing excessive memory usage, pushing your system near full. You're using Windows 10 on a prebuilt PC, and you need to resolve this so it doesn't consume 99% of RAM. Let me know if you'd like guidance on troubleshooting or fixes. Thank you!
It seems there was memory issues upon initial setup of Windows 10. The only solution that resolved it was a complete reinstallation of the operating system.
Your system consistently uses around 2GB of RAM even when idle. This suggests you may be running low on available memory, similar to the experience with your QX6800 build where limited RAM caused instability. Windows struggled with only 1.6 to 2GB at idle, forcing you to use slower RAM from another machine. If this matches your situation, increasing RAM capacity would likely resolve the issue. Otherwise, a memory leak or background process consuming resources could be the cause.
I have 8GB of RAM, no background processes using it, possibly a memory leak—maybe I’ll reinstall the OS. Thank you.
Just to be sure, it could be related to a driver problem... make sure your Device Manager is up to date. I used a Video card driver before.
