Ram being Exhausting !!!

I don't know what is happening but from last four days I have noticed that my laptop's 33% or more ram is being used by system in taskbar it is slowing my system by using unnecessary ram.

&

It always says a message in start up that unable to start dolby driver please restart your system or reinstall the driver if problem persists

I have done both using the latest drivers of windows 10 too.

using Lenovo G510

i5 4th generation Cpu 2.5 ghz turbo boost up to 3.2Ghz

what the hell is being with Microsoft, I never thought about it that this will happen with Microsoft products.

if you say about corruption of windows file then what a good product you have made who got corrupted every fourth day.

 

Ram being Exhausting !!!

In order to diagnose your problem we need to run Windows performance toolkit the instructions for which can be found in
this wiki

If you have any questions feel free to ask



Please run the trace when you are experiencing the problem

 

Do you have vsync on in the minecraft options?
Are your GPU drivers up to date?

 

There are in general 2 reasons why Windows memory manager will limit the memory given to a process.
1. The memory is needed by other processes.
2. Giving it more would not significantly improve it's performance. Generally giving a process more memory will improve it's performance, but only to a point. There will always come a time where giving it more will do very little for it's performance. There may be some other factor limiting the process performance and giving it more memory will not overcome this. There is no provision for overriding the memory managers behavior.

There is no reason to believe that the problems you are having are memory related. I am not a gamer and will not speculate on what that may be.

 

Vsync is off and I tried gta v after and I got 5 fps when I windows 8 I got 50 to 60 fps

 

Are your GPU drivers up to date?

Drivers | GeForce

 

Yes everything is up to date that I know of

 

And does windows update have anything it's trying to finish up at the moment? Anything showing up when you check for updates?

 

No not at all it has been going on ever since I upgraded to windows 10

 

I am having the same isssue my 1600mhz ram is capped at 800mhz Bios shows it set to 1600mhz . 16gb of ram installed only using 2.1 gb of the 16gb . No idea whats going on . All drivers cpu/gpu are updated Bios are updated everything is updated .

 

THIS IS WHAT I FOUND SO FAR FOR AN EXPLANATION
1) You set the timings in the BIOS, so no matter what a Windows program reads it, it is running at the BIOS speed.
2) In CPU-Z, you have to times your RAM frequency by two to get the actual speed. It is taking into account the multiplier, so it only shows it as half.

 

That's the way RAM speed is measured in dual channel mode: 2x800MHz=1600MHz.

 

DDR = Double Data Rate...

Anyway, it looks like you're gpu drivers aren't updated, You stated you were getting 5fps in GTA 5 as well, that's not a hardware issue that's a driver not being their issue.
