this simply means that the programs currently open arn't using alot of ram because they don't need it. If you were to play a newer game it would probably icrease to about 80 or 90. i have 512 and usually runs at about 35 so windows and internet browser use about 200mb a gig is 1024 so 200mb is roughly just under 25%

I understand that when im not running programs that it only uses a lilbit of ram. The thing is it used to work fine but now it doesnt get very high like past 28%.
when i ran my MOHAA before it used about 700 something but it doesnt anymore.
