Hello,
        The upper limit for a server running NT is 2gb, because usually only 4gb of
memory can be installed.  However, I believe that with the patch installed,
enabling NT to go above 4gb of ram, it will also increase the upper limit.

Hi all,

I don't remember the limit, but there *is* an upper limit on the amount of
memory that a single process can address in NT (was it 2Gb?). Since the
architecture of Oracle on NT is a single-process-multi-threaded one, and all
of the SGA and PGA is actually within this process space, I believe that you
may be bumping this upper limit....

Maybe someone with a deeper understanding of NT can chip in (Anita?)
