So looking at task manager dvm.exe is hogging 79k worth of my memory. The only thing I've found that makes referrence to to this is, "The Windows program (DVM.EXE) runs as a background job and displays the A/D data in a small window (similar to the CLOCK program that comes with MS Windows).
Since this is a beta and I figure there are some monitoring scripts running to collect data but if trying to speed up they system to do some more testing. I try to kill it but it restarts itself...any ideas of why it needs to run??

Are you perhaps referring to dwn.exe, the Desktop Window Manager? dwm.exe probably has something to do with Aero though exactly what and in which way it's different from explorer.exe I do no know.
If you find a process in Task Manager that you want to know more about right-click it and select propertied.

If you're talking about dwm.exe, you can reduce (although not completely remove) the memory usage from dwm.exe by shutting off Aero Glass. "Erik Wikström" wrote in message

If it were the DWM, then i'd say only 79K is pretty good! My dwm.exe is using 84504K right now!
I don't appear to have a dvm.exe in my task list. I don't know what it is. Are you able to find where it lives on disk?

38,224K and working like a charm.
119,516 and sometimes having a rough time but I think that's mostly due to the nVidia driver.

These are the things you should be giving Microsoft feedback. Only that way they can improve the RAM Usage.

DWM is now only 23,952K. (Still with Glass enabled) It sure changes sizes a lot but it's also eating 3% of my CPU. Windows Mail is eating 30,268K but yesterday was eating around doubled. The longer I wait, the lower the RAM usage is with DWM.exe. "Chris Altmann" wrote in message
