So, does anyone know how I can find out if my OS is actually using all 6gb of ram I put in it? Hardware DEP is enabled.
I've read tons of links that discuss PAE, and I think it's supposed to be enabled by default since DEP is on, but I wish there was a readout somewhere saying exactly what's being used. CP>System reports 6gb, but Process Explorer>System Info shows Physical Memory (K) Total 3,404,748 with 1,770,000 available. Task Manager shows (MB) 3324 with 29 free. Photoshop CS4>System Info shows Built-in memory: 3325 MB Free memory: 1729 MB Memory available to Photoshop: 1646 MB. All of which sounds suspiciously like PAE is not enabled.? Clear as mud. I suppose I'm just going to have to try forcing PAE and see what happens. :( ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
