Hi, I think you have to modify (create the fwkern.conf if it does not exist) the fwkern.conf file in $FWDIR/modules/ dirrectory so that SPLAT can recognize more than 2GB of RAM. As I recalled SPLAT NG Feature Pack 3 has problem with system with more than 1GB of RAM. The fix is as follows: 1) put the following lines in the fwkern.conf file: fw_smem_use_alternate_malloc=1 fw_hmem_use_alternate_malloc=1
2) Save the file 3) Reboot the system. After that, I think your system will be able to see all 3GB of RAM.

Which is another way of saying there is an integer overflow bug somewhere in their code, and they can't be bothered to fix it. In a 32-bit platform, INT_MAX is 2147483647 (= 2 ^ 31 - 1 = 2048 * 1024 * 1024 - 1) If you take an unsigned int larger than that, and treat it as a signed int, the high order bit will be 1, and it will be treated as a negative number. Do you by chance have between 2 and 4 Gig of RAM in these machines?
