Where is the software run once it has been accessed?
ram
Why it is necessary to shutdown a computer?
It is necessary to shut down the computer when installing software so that the system can make the needed changes for the program to run. Another reason to shut down a computer is to clear out malfunctions in software by clearing out the RAM memory.
The minimum RAM requirement to run Windows Vista is?
application software
Differentiate between RAM buffering and server software?
RAM buffering is extra RAM available to your computer which may or may not involve being connected to a network. Server Software is the programs or software that is run on the part of the network that controls the network
Is there a software that can be substituted for a ram?
RAM is a physical component of a computer it is entirely unrelated to 'software'. Software can not be substituted for RAM. Note: 'Hardware' describes all components that are physical, in other words 'computer parts'. 'Software' describes the programs and applications that run on computers. None can be substituted for the other.
How many GB of RAM should a basic application software such as word processing have?
When I used it, I could run it from about 256MB RAM
A software of 2GB can run over a 512 MB of primary RAM available with the help of virtual memory.Then why is it written on the software that minimum RAM required for it is so and so?
A software which need 2GB RAM will may run with 512MB RAM [Not in a perfect way]. Today computers use virtual memory for multitasking [for running more programs at the same time]. An over-reliance upon virtual-memory can slow overall system performance. By enabling the virtual memory feature, you are asking the computer to use a part of the Hard Disk as Physical Memory [RAM]. Always remember that the Hard Disk is much slower than the original RAM. In this case, you are asking the computer to find the remaining 1.5 GB of RAM which is required to run the software from virtual memory and this will result in constant disk swapping or thrashing which will slow down your computer considerably. So, it is clear that 2GB of RAM is required to run that software in a smooth way and that is what the software developer want to see. That is why the minimum RAM required to run the software is set to 2GB.
When determining the amount of RAM necessary for a computer you wish to purchase what should you consider?
The types of software you plan to use.
What will you be able if you add RAM computer?
Your computer will be able to run faster, and process programs, games, and other software faster.
Will a RAM gets full if there are many installed software?
Installing software, other than during the installation process itself, does not use RAM. However, some software packages include components which run permanently, regardless whether the main application is active or not. These components can allocate RAM, and, particularly when faulty, may end up using much or all available RAM.
What is definition of system software?
System software is a set of routines that are used to manage hardware and provide functions necessary for user applications to run.
