Memory Hard Faults/Sec ?

Comment:

Hi All I have been asked to look at a Laptop that is extremely slow. Whenever I run an application, Internet Explorer for example the stats in Memory Hard Faults/Sec are well into the 100s (155, 167) If I run Windows Memory diagnostic tools it reports no problems! Which should I believe? Thanks in Advance Ade

Don't worry about it. It's OK. If you want you can look up what that means. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/... Playing to the angels Les Paul (1915-2009)

Many Thanks So I incorrectly thought that "Memory Hard Faults/Sec" meant a memory problem when in fact it is means the times it had to get info from the swap file on the hard drive as it was not in memory Another 1 Gig of memory looks like the answer Cheers Ade
