    I recently bought the 9410 laptop and installed the same programs i have in my desktop (XP OS). I disabled auto memory optimization from ePerformance manager and after that the memory usage increased at 500 - 550 MB instead of 295 MB avg in my desktop when no application is running (for both machines). When optimizing (from ePerf manager again) it drops down to 300 - 310 MB but after 3-4 hours raises again. Does anyone have a clue why this happening?
    Thanks in advance...

    It looks like the graphics card has "Turbocache" which means it uses RAM instead of having that much dedicated memory on the card. I believe the Turbocache uses 128MB of RAM.
