Half of my RAM is hardware reserved
Hi,
I noticed that my computer was freezing at times when running a stock charting program that sends lots of data. With the help of their tech support I found out that 16.1Gb of my 32Gb Ram was hardware reserved. I did a Google search and tried the following:
- unchecked maximum memory in System Config, Boot, Advanced Options
- selected "adjust for best performance" in System Properties, Performance, Settings, Advanced and unchecked Automatically manage paging and set a custom size for Virtual Memory to 2048-4096
- disabled SysMain in services.msc
- adjusted for best performance in sysdm.cpl
- disabled unnecessary programs to startup in task manager setup
- changed power plan to High Performance
- did a Disk Cleanup
- deleted all in temp and %temp%
- did a full scan on Malewarebytes
- tried bcdedit /deletevalue and truncatememory commands but received error messages
Running Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
System Model - B450 AORUS PRO WIFI
Processor - AMD Ryzen 5 2600X Six-Core 3.60 GHz
RAM - Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3200
Graphics Card - Radeon Rx 580 Series
C drive 476Gb with 392Gb free holds all program files
D drive 297 Gb with 161 Gb free
E drive 931 Gb with 670 Gb free
Appreciate your help,
Lu
