Try using het following code:
PerformanceCounter cpuCounter;
PerformanceCounter ramCounter;
cpuCounter = new PerformanceCounter();
cpuCounter.CategoryName = "Processor";
cpuCounter.CounterName = "% Processor Time";
cpuCounter.InstanceName = "_Total";
ramCounter = new PerformanceCounter("Memory", "Available MBytes");
public string getCurrentCpuUsage(){
return cpuCounter.NextValue()+"%";
}
public string getAvailableRAM(){
return ramCounter.NextValue()+"MB";
}
