There's a few known issues with high RAM usage in Windows 8. One is some computers which come with a caching utility called Intellimemory -- it is SUPPOSED to use RAM to speed up the computer, but Versions below 1.0.30 are known to use *too much* RAM and become counterproductive. Another one is a (new in Win8) Microsoft network driver called Ndu.sys (Windows Network Data Usage Monitoring Driver). It has some sort of compatibility problem with Realtek gigabit drivers that makes RAM usage go up to like 80%, _right after booting_. Updating the Realtek drivers apparently does not help; disabling ndu.sys does help. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
