Physical Memory
Total 254mb
used 175mb
free 79mb
utilization 69%

Is there something I can do to utilize more % of the memory?Also toward the bottom of that Everest memory screen =
Physical Address Extension (PAE)
supported by OPERATING system = yes
supported by CPU = yes
Active = No

Do I need this active and if yes, how do I do it?What's your OS (and that's probably where this post belongs, by the way)?Celeron 667mhz
Intel 82810 chipset
Windows XP home SP2
128mb x2 RAM
80gb WD IDE
10gb Seagate IDE
