Physical Memory Usage 99%

[Tamblot]

---

My computer just suddenly slowed down. At first i thought that its because of my Drive C almost getting full. So I uninstall and later decided to fresh install everything including the OS (Xp Pro) in Drive C.

Just recently, I noticed that when I burn DVDs, my physical memory usage would rise to 99%. This would sometimes even lead to burn error (out of memory). i'm using Nero here.

Idle physical memory usage is 23% - 35%. CPU usage is normal.

Before, my monitoring system just indicates, 45% when burning DVDs. No hardware changes so far.

Any possible problem?

Your advice is very much appreciated. Thanx!

processes are normal. Memory usage just rise to 99% during DVD burning. As for, CD burning, it only lingers around 60%.

@cebutech: i'll consider that option. But whats the possiblity na harddisk and blema.

@DSX: I've tried other media, generic nad branded. same. I'll consider the option of having a different burning software. I'm just wondering why before, everything is normal.

@nightzlayer: I already did a fresh install. Tanan. starting from the OS.

@Beor: That's something which didn't cross my mind yet. I'll check on that.

Thanx for the inputs everyone! I'll update this once i get results.
