The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    On my previous XP installation I did have a leak which meant I needed to reboot about once per week. I think the problem was with something called "Tracehelper". This problem has not reappeared since I did a new installation about 3 months back. However, I usually reboot about once per week.

    When you run standard apps and nothing too crazy, that is not an issue. The only program that has any sort of memory issue is Firefox. Close that here and there and it's fine.
