Re: [Simply Computers] AMD Capturing Window

 

Well, hi again!

You say, "task manager is telling me that I am using 2.88 gig of ram"
- isn't that good? You want your programs to run in RAM don't you?
And you're not getting any errors. To me this is like getting good
gas mileage without the check engine light being on.

If your "check engine" light comes on - that is, you get an error
message - just let us know we can help with that.
