Looking to free up some RAM on your running system? Then FreeRAM XP Pro is the program for you. Truly freeware, it gives you complete access to all its features at no cost. You can either have the program automatically optimize your system, or you can specify how much memory you'd like to free up. Advanced tray support, automatic memory monitoring and optimization, system-metric monitors, and real-time memory information are just a few of the features that make this program attractive and useful. You also can apply different sounds to different actions.

Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.5
"Installs easy and frees up memory"
Pros: Some of the other reviewers had trouble installing this product for some reason. It comes in a simple rar file and unzips in a second. Of course you need WinRAR installed on your pc, but I thought in this day and age everybody would have that by now, since half of all files are in the rar format to save space. Anyway, FreeRam XP Pro is free and frees up your ram and speeds up your pc. This is very helpful for pcs with only 256 MB or less. 5 Stars and Two Thumbs Up!

Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.5
"Couldn't get past installation"
Cons: The installation was seemingly succesful but upon starting the program I get persistent error messages and I cannot get further than these. I tried to troubleshoot in every possible way but it's just not happening. Wandering if there are any known bugs in this version, and so on, cos it's a mystery to me...

Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.5
Pros: Easy to use. "Just set it and forget it" Only the system tray tells me the product is loaded and functioning. Truly a useful and helpful product.
Cons: Because of my success with v1.4 I looked forward to latest version. V1.5 doesn't seem to play well with v1.4. I improperly uninstall v1.4. V1.5 will not install until v1.4 is properly uninstalled. I tried to reload v1.4 and was stopped by v1.5. So now its a standoff. Can't use v1.5 and can't reload v1.4. And FAQ's were no help.
Developer needs to offer a reset utility to deal with the unsophisticated user such as me. I use the program constantly but have no way to use either v1.4 or v1.5

Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.5
Pros: none
Cons: In practical, if you try to free memory on RAM, windows will write the neccessory files or cache on hard disk instead which will drop overall system performance
