[QUOTE="AtlBo, post: 745396, member: 32547"] Left mine on one night with an ad video playing in a tab. Woke up and the virtual memory error box was showing and the PC was using 100% of the RAM (8 GB). I closed that tab, and that problem stopped. I would say it was a Chrome thing that time as in maybe Chrome continually requested RAM for the looping video without clearing the previous. I think it's mostly apps that cause the problem. I had the same thing happen with HWiNFO hard drive gadget. It continually logged data and placed it in RAM memory, even though the gadget only needed like 5 seconds of the data for the display. I don't see how someone can write an app like that and not notice that problem...oh well... [/QUOTE]
