RAM in Sony Vaio...?

When I surf the net and open multiple tabs {like I do in Yahoo Answers} my RAM {1014mb} fills up in like 1/2 an hour and I have to restart my Laptop or it won't let me open any more windows and runs kinda slow. What is the problem?

    The problem is most likey that you have a small storage. it's not really a big deal, unless it takes while to restart your laptop.

    You need more virtual memory...

    click start

    control panel

    click on perf & maintance (system)

    click on system

    windows will pop-up

    click on advanced tab

    click on settings button under pref

    click advanced tab

    near the bottom click on change tick the custom size radio button

    initial size (I think 1024 or 512 is OK)

    maximize size

    click OK

    click apply

    click apply again

    hope this helps....good luck!
