What else can I help you with?
What stores data and programs while you are using them?
The computer's Random Access Memory (RAM) temporarily stores data and programs while your computer is on.
What part of a computer stores data programs settings and the operating system while the computer is off?
The part of a computer that stores data, programs, settings, and the operating system while the computer is off is the hard drive or solid-state drive (SSD). These storage devices retain information even when the power is turned off, allowing for data retrieval when the computer is powered back on. In contrast, RAM (random access memory) only holds data temporarily while the computer is on.
What area of the computer temporarily restores information internally while the computer is on?
RAM (Random Access Memory)
What temporarily holds data and programs while computer is on?
The RAM (random access memory) usually stores temporary files and cache to help speed up your computer by not having to repeatedly load the same thing but is you do not restart your computer the RAM will become full and it will slow down your computer so every now and then just restart the computer for best performance.
Which part iof the computer stores memory while the computer is on?
central processing unit
Can you use the computer while charging your mp3 player?
Yes, you can do both at the same time. It may temporarily slow down your computer, due to increased driver usage.
Size of computer memory refers to RAM or hard disk?
RAM (Random Access "Memory") stores information temporarily while the power is on. Hard Disk "Space" stores information permanently regardless of whether the power is on or off. Computer specifications usually specify RAM as system "memory" (like 2GB DDR2 MEMORY) and refer to Hard Disk storage as "Hard Drive(s)", system "storage", or "Disk Space" (like 320GB HARD DRIVE). Think of the Hard Drive as a storage shed and the RAM as the playground. The computer gets the programs/data from the hard drive and pulls them out temporarily into the playground for you to use, then stores them back in the shed when you are done.
Why you need to use RAM?
To make the computer fast, and to have your application and data a place to stay temporarily while you access them for a faster way.
What is computer circuitry that temporarily holds data waiting to processed known as?
The Ram - Random Access Memory temporarily holds programs and data while the computer is on and allows the computer to access that information randomly.
What part of the computer stores data while it's being manipulated?
on a cmoputer chip
Is it true that RAM in a computer stires data temporary?
Yes, that's true. RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of volatile memory that temporarily stores data and instructions that the CPU needs while a computer is running. Once the power is turned off or the system is restarted, the data in RAM is lost, unlike storage devices such as hard drives or SSDs, which retain data permanently.
Does hibernating a computer cost money?
Hibernating a computer costs no more than turning it off. All computers have RAM and a HDD. The ram stores information temporarily which is lost when power is lost, while the HDD is used for long term storage and is kept when power is lost. When you hibernate your computer it saves everything it is proccessing on the RAM at the time to the HDD. Then when you turn your computer back on it moves all the proccesses back onto the RAM. So... no, it shouldn't cost anymore than turning it off.
