I just formatted my computer, then immediately installed all windows updates, except Service Pack 2. After about 8 hours of remaining idle, my computer's memory usage goes up to 100%, then eventually locks solid. I restart the computer, and everything comes back up fine for another 8 hours. I thought it might be some kind of memory leak, so I ran a 24 hour RAM test using MemTest 86+. No errors. I ran full system scans for spyware and viruses as well, but have found nothing. Does anyone know what may be going on with my computer???

Any feedback would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thank You.
