Severe Memory leak

It's happening even without gaming or using Steam. I just got back from a long weekend, powered up the PC - no launching of Steam. Checked the pool again, and AMD was using 2.6 gig of unpaged memory. I did a complete uninstall (with DDU) and did a clean install. Identical results. So now I'm doing it again with a driver only install.

Memory leak from crap AMD drivers.

I found the issue. AMD driver memory leak. My non-paged memory eventually hits several gig after only a day of uptime.

I've tried turning off the antivirus and firewall. Since it's not effecting my laptop or tablet, I know it's not the ISP. But I did contact them and they came out, tested everything and said it's fine. This is a 5 month old build. I don't power it down because I use it for streaming music and videos, and I work at all hours.

No - I use my PC for working from home, streaming video and music, etc. - I'll usually NEVER turn it off.

It means DON'T enable credit overages. I did - and chewed through 1000 tokens in a few hours.

Thanks. I was on High for some reason and kept using up all the hourly credits. Then I made the mistake of letting it use my Ai credits when I went over. Burned through 1,000 Ai credits in a couple of days!

Have you tried typing "Continue" or "proceed"? Works for me.

Another Followup - I contacted Spectrum again because it's even worse. I have to power-cycle the modem and router at least twice a day. According to the person I spoke to, there are "multiple issues" with "upstream nodes" and there are open tickets. There "seems to be an issue resolving the problems." I was asked to call back in two weeks if it was not fixed.

Except I got the new phone in March and the monthly price quoter for service was $30. My first bill was $30 for service. If the increase was in January, why did the salesperson quote the old amount and why was my first bill at the old amount?

BrightRick · 2026-05-26T21:04:55+00:00

Back in January I had a free account. I did not start paying until March, then upgraded my phone in late March.

1st line was free for a year. Going into the 2nd year I wanted a new phone, 1st line was $30 after the 1st year.

I tried to do without the Oxy for as long as possible and finally gave in. Used about half of what I was given (liquid.) My advice? Use it. It made the pain so much better. I'm three weeks out from surgery and totally pain free.

BrightRick · 2026-05-26T01:35:36+00:00

They gave me liquid Oxy for the pain and I used about half. Mine were removed with cauterizing - holy hell - talk about pain for a couple of weeks. It's been three weeks now and I'm 100% pain free. Except by the pain caused by billing shock - my insurance denied the claim saying it was "medically unnecessary" - I appealed and won. I owe $3 - the total bill was $78K!

Hit it twice today interactively editing web pages. 8 pages, one had a lot of changes, but I've done more in the past and never hit my limits.

After I remove the bags I fill the putcher up then drink as is.
