32bit vs 64bit with 2GB of ram

Also, 64bit Windows runs very slow on 2GB of RAM, we suggest 4GB or better to install 64bit Windows.

 

EtwB Utilizing ~2GB of RAM


Hello,

I am experiencing an issue on my laptop where the Event Tracking for Windows (EtwB) is utilizing an excessive amount of memory. I have attached screenshots of both task manager's memory usage, task manager's list of running programming sorted by working memory, and a list from poolmon.exe showing the excessive memory usage.

Running the machine in Safe Mode, this does not occur. I have also disabled all startup programs and restarted, and the problem still exists. I tried disabling my network devices and closing all open programs, and it still shows over 4GB no matter what, with EtwB always being around that amount in poolmon.

Here are my system specifications:
MSI GS65 Stealth
GTX 1070 Max-Q
Intel Core i7-8750H
Intel UHD Graphics 630
16GB DDR4 SODIMM RAM (2x8GB) @ 2667MHz

Let me know if I can provide anything else to help in figuring this issue out.

 

Can I install Win 10 on a 2gb ram pc

Hello,
I am getting a new desktop and it has windows 7 on it now. However it only has 2gb of DDR3 ram. I am wondering if putting Windows 10 on it is possible or even suggested? And if it is possible, which version should I try??
