获得更多的可用内存(Making More Memory Available) 廖日青 1997-01-01   Memory exists on your computer's main system board or on add-in memory boards. Before information is processed by the computer or displayed on the screen,it is first placed in memory. For example,application files are usually stored on a hard disk. When you run an application,its files are loaded into memory for processing. Memory also provides temporary storage for applications and data.   内存位于系统主板上或者附加内存条上。信息在被计算机处理或者在屏幕上显示之前,首先被放入内存。例如,应用程序文件通常存储在硬盘上。当运行应用程序时,其文件首先被装入内存然后再执行。内存也为应用程序和数据提供临时存储。   In general,the more memory you have,the more applications you can run simultaneously in the Windows environment.   一般来讲,内存越多,在Windows环境中可同时运行的应用程序也就越多。   There are several ways to make more memory available. You can:   可以用下面的几种方法来获得更多的可用内存:   ·Install additional physical memory. Typically,this involves plugging a memory board into a slot inside your computer or adding more memory to an existing memory board.   ·安装额外的物理内存。通常是将一块内存条插入内存插槽内或者往一块现有的内存条上增加更多的内存。   ·Make the most of the memory your computer already has. One way to do this is to run the MemMaker memory-optimization program,which adjusts the way your device drivers and programs use memory.   ·使计算机可用内存为最大。实现这种要求的一种方法是运行MemMaker内存优化程序,以调整设备驱动程序和程序使用内存的方法。   ·Make more memory available in Windows by using a swap file.   ·在Windows中通过使用交换文件来获得更多的可用内存。
