Vista 64x OS; 4GB pc9500 RAM; Total RAM in task manager is 4093MB, but
3117MB is listed in cache with only 300MB "free". What can I do to fix
this problem? Thanks in advance for your help!

When you say cache are you talking about on the Performance Tab or what?

Umm.. what problem?

You have gobs of ram your system isn't otherwise using for applications, so
the OS has helpfully cached some of your disk ops in it. This is what's
meant to happen.
