Windows ME memory leak and other

Comment:

1. Will Ram monitering programs counteract the effects of the famed WIN ME memory leak especially after opening large files?
2. I have brand new Pentium 4 1.5 GHZ 256 Ram, yet it seems like my pc runs rather sluggish sometimes. How can I determine my free memory? Is the free memory available actually the "free unused physical memory"? Is it allocated memory?
3. Sometimes when I reboot or power on from cold, at the end of the boot up, I get an exception error. "Explorer has caused an error in .." I click "OK" and it goes away but, pops back up every 10 minutes.(Very consistent).
Sometimes, the errors degrade. I click "OK" and another error window pops up regarding Explorer causing an error in KRNL32.dll and other windows system stuff etc..
This happens every other time I boot up! It's getting ridicolous!
My old win 95 pentium 2 300 was a lot more stable!
Any similar problems? Any suggestions?
Thanks,

are you sure you're using ME. with all those
problems it sounds more like 98se. re-format
and reinstall ME and try again.
