Satellite L650 - RAM reach 100% without reason

I have a Toshiba Laptop Satellite L650 with Windows 7 Home Premium, a CPU i5 M480, 4 GB ram and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 graphic cards.

My problem is when I watch a move. Usually 1.7 GB of ram are used but when I watch a move with any player instantly the ram that are used rich 100% with result my laptop crash or perform each task very slowly. This problem starts a few days ago.

How can I fix that?

To be honest I’ve never heard about such problem. Do you watch DVD movies, bluray movies, avi files, online streaming?

Have you noticed this issue with all these possibilities to watch movies?

The problem when I was watching a movie from external hard disk.

Hi

So this happens only playing an movie from an external USB HDD. Right?
Possibly this can be related to the USB 2.0 data transfer rate.
Blu-ray movies are very big files because of the high resolution…
This is only a personal assumption but I think that an player which is used for streaming of such big files from external HDD would lock the RAM and this could lead to such notebook behavior…

At the other hand it could be possible that your external HDD is not fully ok.
In such case I would recommend testing this using other HDD.
