Adding memory ... Since memory is a system resource, adding more should increase those resources. (But on the other hand, we're dealing with Windows!) According to another source I checked adding more memory will not increase the system resource readings on the System Resource Meter. The System Resource Meter only measures the amount of free memory available in the GDI and User heaps. The GDI and User heaps are always 64 kbytes in size. Yes I know this is contrary to what Zeddie88 observed but right now I am more inclined to believe the statement "adding more memory will not increase the system resource readings". Only the GDI and User readings on the System Resource meter are meaningful. The System Resource reading is the lower of the GDI and User readings. Your observation "we're dealing with Windows" was right on.
