Running Esignal and a few other programs right now
I looked up Esignal's system requirements because I was curious and they recommend:
Intel® Core™ i3 / i5 / i7,
3GB RAM
or
"Power User"
Intel® Core™ i7, 3.2 GHz or faster
6 GB RAM.
I don't know very much about computers but could your problem be your processor? And a question for anyone out there, does Esignal really use that much RAM?

I'm running a quad 2.4, and I haven't noticed any problems with my CPU usage in the task manager.
For instance, it's bouncing back and forth between roughly 5 and 35% right now with all of my programs up and running (and generally staying on the lower end of that range).
My RAM is at 4 gigs right now, so still have 2 gigs remaining there, but I've seen it creep up into the 5 gig area a few times.
Maybe I don't need to do anything -- I'm not sure.
Seems to be working OK though. For now at least.
I'm not really sure how much RAM esignal uses.

Open your Task Manager and click the Processes tab. You'll find Winros and Winsig... I'm not sure whether that's all of eSignal on your machine, but you'll get a good idea of how much RAM eSignal uses.

You might find that eSignal doesn't use the most RAM on your system. In mine, eSignal uses only about 125MB... but I don't use eSignal charting.

I think eSignal has amazing charts, if you don't use them whose charts do you use?

MetaStock. I started using when eSignal was data only.. before they did charts.
