![]() ![]() ![]() Note that not all of the latter categories of memory usage are repeated in the former - this is normal. The same information is repeated in the numerical chart in the middle of the screen. This display is sliced two ways: the horizontal color bar graph shows memory by active/standby/modified/free status (there are more statuses than that, but that's the gist of it), and the vertical color bar graph shows how memory from those groups is allocated by usage. When you run RAMMap (admin privileges are required), you'll be shown a tabbed window with a default view that shows all the different ways memory is allocated - the use counts - in the system. RAMMap has a far more comprehensive and specific memory-analysis page, but note that it will only work with Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008, since it requires system calls that only exist in those editions of Windows. RAMMap 1.1 comes to us courtesy of Sysinternals, the folks who brought us the inimitable Process Explorer, and it's easily the best replacement out there for the stock Task Manager app. ![]() Various task manager applications have some overview of memory, but until now they haven't provided as detailed and useful a dissection of Windows memory usage as the RAMMap utility. One of these factors, in my opinion, is the lack of a good tool for allowing the user to see all memory allocation at a glance, topically. The confusion over memory usage can be attributed to a number of things.
