No free memory i could say.
Okay let`s start with de begining.
I`ve had installed the free RC1 win7 from Microsoft site in june or july, i don`t know exactly. Everything worked fine till now.
Everytime when my computer starts, the utorrent stars too, i had no problem having it running in background, but now if utorent is open my laptop is useless. I`ve got no free ram, in the other hand i have AVAILABLE ram, shown in the picture above, i bearely can move my mouse cursor, if i stop the wireless connection stops and works fine, if i turn it on the same thing.
After computer starts up if i don`t open any application and check task manager i have Cached Memory around 600 and Free Memory ~500, after that the memory cache raises and free memory decrease till 0-10
I can feel that is running slowly when i`m running more applications, like office, mozilla, totalcmd, oulook, no uttorent.

How can i get more free memory and how to manage it ?

My computer spec
Inter Core2Duo
2GB ram ddr2 557mhz
160GB ram
11,7 GB free on disk C.

Any help is wellcomed :)

It seems like you are experiencing memory-related issues on your computer, specifically with uTorrent consuming a significant amount of memory, leading to performance problems. Here are some steps you can take to manage memory more effectively and potentially improve your system's performance:

Tips to Manage Memory:​

  1. Close Unnecessary Programs: Make sure to close any programs or applications that you are not actively using to free up memory.
  2. Limit uTorrent Usage: Since uTorrent is consuming a large amount of memory, consider limiting the number of active torrents or the overall uTorrent usage to reduce its impact on system performance.

  2. Limit uTorrent Usage: Since uTorrent is consuming a large amount of memory, consider limiting the number of active torrents or the overall uTorrent usage to reduce its impact on system performance.
  3. Increase Virtual Memory: You can increase virtual memory (page file) in Windows to provide additional memory resources. Here's how you can do it:
    • Go to Control Panel > System and Security > System > Advanced system settings.
    • In the System Properties window, go to the Advanced tab and click on Settings under the Performance section.
    • In the Performance Options window, go to the Advanced tab and click on Change under Virtual memory.
    • Adjust the virtual memory settings or let Windows manage it automatically.
    []Upgrade RAM: Consider upgrading your RAM if possible. With only 2GB of DDR2 RAM, your system may struggle with modern applications and tasks. []Check Startup Programs: Review the programs that start up with your computer and disable any unnecessary ones that consume memory.
  4. Use Resource Monitor: Monitor your system's memory usage using the Resource Monitor tool in Windows. It provides detailed information on memory usage by processes.

    Additional Recommendations:​

    • Consider upgrading to a more modern operating system with better memory management capabilities.
    • If you frequently use torrenting software, consider alternative lightweight torrent clients that consume fewer system resources.
    By following these steps and optimizing your system's memory usage, you can potentially improve its performance and responsiveness. If you continue to experience issues, feel free to provide more information for further assistance.
