need help regarding proper memory usage of RAM

Hi! my cpu configuration is below-
amd athlon x2 260 3.2 ghz proceesor
4gb starlite ddr3 1333 ram
gigabyte 78lmts2p motherboard
iball lpe223-400 smps
lg l1515s tft monitor

i have windows 7 ultimate 64bit...at startup or any other time even when the cpu is idle the cpu meter (gadget) is showing that the ram is being used up 24-26 % all the time :shock:

..no program is running!!
what could be the possible problem?? :-?

I don't think it is a problem. Even when the CPU is idle, OS runs a lot of applications in background like Antivirus software, Firewall, pagefile mapping etc. If you have setting of starting up tons of applications when your PC boots up like Messengers and stuffs like that then also it will eat up your memory.

thanksss

..which antivirus is the best?? not internet security..

Get the Avast Free Edition. In terms of feature set and performance it is the best...not saying because I am using it. Check all the review sites for free antivirus comparison and you'll find the answer. It also uses very less system resource compared to other anti-viruses like Norton or KasperSky.

is it of lifetime?

Its free hence do not worry about subscription, use it forever if you wish.

i am downloading it from download.cnet.com... is it okay??

^^ Yes it's ok

forgot to tell..downloaded avast free edition..good antivirus..thanks

Closing.
