  1. Extremely high RAM usage

    Been having this problem for ages and I still don't know what's causing it. Sometimes I boot up my computer and it seems fine and sometimes I boot it up and this happens, where on idle, it is using over 97% of my RAM. I've tried updating drivers but nothing seems to work. It's getting to the point where the computer is barely useable due to how slow it is. If nothing works, I'll reset windows back to factory but will this even work? because I dont want to go through the hassle of doing all of that if this problem will just occur again

    Not sure what this is but in RAMMAP, the processes tab is filled with AGMservice.exe, there are loads of them. Not sure if this is normal.

    Thanks

  3. RAM usage extremely high and source undetectable

    First of all, thank you for your response.

    Second, the solutions you've given me, all relate to either the source of the issue being visible in task manager or they are solutions to bad RAM. Only the first one actually relates to the source of the high RAM usage not being visible in task manager,
    but for me, the source is not even visible in poolmon.

    Also, I find it very peculiar that it says my user account is only using 1 GB of RAM the last time I checked and the system was using 4 GB of RAM.

    So, I would be very if you would further help me locate the source of my high RAM usage.

    I gave you steps to check the baseline integrity of your install, account and RAM. This checklist will often find and fix problems with resource usage. So please complete all steps and report back results.

    Please do not skip any steps. We often find out later that the fix was the skipped step. If you need help performing any step I will help.
