[QUOTE="the8thark, post: 1115822, member: 26315"] My hard Drive has like 80B-100GB free out of it's 250GB in total. I did the hardware test using the original grey discs that came with my imac. The SL DVD does not have the hardware test on it. And that came up clean with nothing wrong. And I usually have only 3-4 of the following Apps open at once. Safari, itunes, msn/adium, text edit and maybe World of Warcraft. But the issue happens also at times I do not play WoW. And yes I know inactive memory is just as available as free memory for my computer. But why my imac never uses any of it I just do not know. I'm really stumpred at why this is happening. And thanks for the responses. [/QUOTE]
