[Ham-Computers] RE: Question abt Ram

[Loren Moline WA7SKT]

John,

My RAM Defrag monitors RAM and when it gets down to 25% it runs abd does 
automatic defrag, This is configurable.

One problem I have is my harddrive defrag for Win98 wont run..I believe its 
corrupted and I don't know how to store it so I have no defrag program now. 
Im a believer in shareware so have never purchased much software although I 
just bought Registry Merchanic.
