How do I Change RAM Editors in a Sony Laptop?

RAM editors let Sony laptop users more effectively divide computer memory.

RAM editors are programs that help Sony laptops more effectively manage their available RAM. If a particular application is running slowly, there may be another application using more RAM than it needs. Using a RAM editor, you can dedicate Sony's RAM to a particular application, a particular process or a particular drive. Because there are a variety of editors, you might wish to try several or switch to a new one if your current program doesn't meet expectations.

Things You'll Need

• Installer file for new RAM editor

Instructions

1. Click the Start menu in the lower-left hand corner of the desktop and select "Control Panel."

2. Click "Programs," then "Programs and Features."

3. Scroll down the list until you find the current RAM editor. Select it and click "Uninstall." You may need to enter the Windows password.

4. Open the installer file for the RAM editor to which you wish to change. If you do not have a new RAM editor, you can download one online (see Resources).

5. Follow the onscreen instructions to install the new editor onto the Sony laptop. This will generally involve agreeing to a software license, choosing an installation destination and beginning the installation.
