    Task manager not showing complete memory usage?


    This has a couple of angles on this topic:
    All Physical memory being used but nothing showing in task manager - Microsoft Community

    Note the comment about data loaded into RAM- not necessarily exe's or dlls.

    The top file is an O&O disk image file I've just created and written to an external USB.
    The second is part of creating OO DiskImage's bootable CD

    Task manager not showing complete memory usage?


    Hi, I have 4GB of DDR3 ram on my laptop. When I go into the task manager to check how much ram is being used, it says only 795MB and yet it also says that 94% is being used.

    This is always the case, of course with varying numbers. The memory usage shown does not coordinate with the percentage, but the computer performance certainly correlates with the percentage.

    When I check in cpu-z, it does confirm that the 4GB are all installed. What is going on here?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Update #2:
    Ah, I missed the performance tab which does indeed show all of the correct total amount of ram being used. Now how do I find all of the individual processes and services using those resources?
