XP or Vista won't see the 4Gb, even if you use /maxmem or /pae. My test on Win2k3 Enterprise 32bit edition will work since it uses the PAE kludge. To be fair, Linux 32bit can use PAE too. But to paraphrase Linus, just use a 64bit Linux, instead of using PAE. This last sentence is here so that this won't be offtopic. :) -- regards, Andre | http://www.varon.ca _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List http://lists.linux.org.ph/mailman/listinfo/plug Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
