MemStatus is a small app designed to show you how much memory you are using.
Yes there's a million other apps that do this already. This one aims at being
easy to read at a glance without all the bloat most of the other apps have.
MemStatus does not free, manage, or defrag your memory. It simply let's you see
what your using in real time. It remembers the peak usages for the current
session and supports multiple monitors.

Differences in Versions.


MemStatus 2.50 is the last version to support older machines running Windows 98 or prior.
It is unable to accuratly detect more then 2GB of system RAM.


MemStatus 2.65 supports 32 & 64 bit versions of Windows 2000 and XP
It drops support for older versions of Windows in favor of being able to
accuratly detect large amounts of RAM.


MemStatus 3.00 supports Windows Vista and Windows 7
This version does not display Video Memory usage. These versions of Windows manage
video memory in a way that prevents applications from knowing exactly how much is available.

Troubleshooting:

Q: MemStatus says I'm not using any video memory.

A:	Typically this is normal. Try running a game that uses a lot of textures.



Q: MemStatus says I don't have video memory at all!

A:	If your motherboard has onboard video then it probably shares system memory
	with video memory. In other words, your system does not have video memory.



Q: MemStatus still says I have no video memory and I checked the above!

A:	If you are running Windows Vista, 7 or later MemStatus is not able to determine
	how much video memory is in use.



Q: MemStatus shows less total video memory then my card has.

A:	The Total Video Memory is memory that is usable by applications.
	Depending on your driver/hardware this will probably be slightly less then the
	actual amount of onboard memory as some of it may be reserved for the screen's
	display, cache or various buffers.



Q: When I run MemStatus I can't see the window. It used to work fine.

A:	It's possible that the window is off of your screen.
	End task or otherwise close MemStatus.	Then delete prefs.cfg
