Task manager reports memory usage in KB instead of MB

In the task manager, under the Process tab, memory usage is reported in KB
when it definately should be MB for all processes (except those few that do
use only a few KB of course).

I'm running Vista x64 (ultimate) with 4GB of ram.
All updates (and extras) have been installed.

When I first installed Vista in february it was reporting correctly.

Interesting note: when I create a new user on the same system, the memory
usage is correctly reported in MB.

Has anyone experienced similar behaviour ?

Thanks,

Mine displays in KB, it always has since installation. It would be nice
though if it could be put into MB.

 

I have never seen a task manager process display in any value other than
kb - on many hundreds of computers. You must be mistaken in what you
"thought" you first saw.

Actually yes I was mistaken, apologies. But it is, however, reporting
incorrectly.
What it actually is reporting now is this:

dwm.exe 23kB

where it should correctly report:

dwm.exe 23.457kB

Again apologies, it's been a while since I've seen the correct values.
