MemberI am currently running windows me and I was wondering if there is a way to get a more detailed task manager (like the one in windows xp) without getting windows xp.

ParticipantWhat information in the Windows Xp task manager are you looking for?

Memberalright in xp you see like 50 running processes all shown with size they take up.
in windows me there are like 10 shown, but there are more running that im sure of that arent shown and they size of them arent shown either.

ParticipantIn Norton Systemworks 2004 Pro, theres a nifty little program called Process Viewer. It may in be in other versions, I don’t know though. But it definetly is better than the task manager in ME.
Process Viewer doesn’t show CPU usage though, so I don’t know if it’s what you’re looking for.
Might want to google Task Manager.

MemberThe only one I’ve seen for 9x (including ME) is aTaskManager. It’s totally useless though, it reports every program’s memory usage as round about 1MB, no matter how big or small the program really is!
Edit: actually it reports some programs as using a few 10’s of KB, but certainly never more than 1MB

Well, to get an XP-like taskmanager, you could upgrade to Windows 2000. The only reason to need something like this would be if you had a serious stability issue worth viewing processes over. It was left out of Me for a reason, the fact that Me is for the home user. Depending on your hardware (compatibility), I would upgrade to 2000 for the stability and feature you mentioned. Somethings we just cannot live without.

My job as a Global Moderator is not just to ‘set examples’, but to keep the forum clean, and spam free. Users should have the intelligence to figure out how to act on their own, it isn’t that hard of a thing to do.
You may be learning but you ARE spamming, and anyone else can see that, posting ‘haha’ isn’t learning, and you know it. Asking a question that is answered if you type the subject line into google and receive a thousand answers is asking a stupid question.
Learn to think before you post, it isn’t hard, everyone else can do it just fine.

MemberOkay, time to calm down and cool off.

Here is your example:
Quote:quote:Originally posted by ys8er2323haha
Get it? A post containing “haha” is not interesting to read and it costs the moderators a lot of time to remove such posts (and you’ve made quite a few in the past months!).
So, there’s your example. I can’t make it any clearer than this. You will either stop making posts that do not contain anything interesting to read, or you will face the consequences.
