Task manager reports memory usage in KB instead of MB
In the task manager, under the Process tab, memory usage is reported in KB
when it definately should be MB for all processes (except those few that do use only a few KB of course). I'm running Vista x64 (ultimate) with 4GB of ram. All updates (and extras) have been installed. When I first installed Vista in february it was reporting correctly. Interesting note: when I create a new user on the same system, the memory usage is correctly reported in MB. Has anyone experienced similar behaviour ? Thanks, MacGyver

Thanks, MacGyver Mine displays in KB, it always has since installation. It would be nice though if it could be put into MB. -- Can't think of a sig at the moment. Read this instead.

I have never seen a task manager process display in any value other than
kb - on many hundreds of computers. You must be mistaken in what you "thought" you first saw. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) "MacGyver" wrote in message ...

Actually yes I was mistaken, apologies. But it is, however, reporting
incorrectly. What it actually is reporting now is this: dwm.exe 23kB where it should correctly report: dwm.exe 23.457kB Again apologies, it's been a while since I've seen the correct values.
