RE: /3GB switch
Andrew, Check the links below for some more info on the /3GB switch. It is intended for W2K Advanced Server and W2K Datacenter Server, except for some special circumstances. User mode is still limited to 2 GB when this switch is used on W2K Server. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q291988 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q298064 http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/platform/server/PAE/PAEmem.asp http://www.dell.com/downloads/us/pedge/exchange2000.doc Anthony. -Original Message- From: Marty Richards [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 11:15 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: /3GB switch imho, the /3GB switch causes problems on standard Win2000 servers. Someone sent me a MS doc talking about why you wouldn't want to run this switch on a production box - I could probably find it if anyone is interested. /3Gb seems to be much happier on Win2000 Advanced server though, it actually does something. Has anyone persuaded any version of Windows to use more than 3.1Gb of memory?

RE: /3GB switch
It not the /3GB switch meant for advanced servers. I do not know anyone using a standard serving but runs OK on AdvServer and E2KE. ellery july phone - 651-225-3895 -Original Message- From: Sharicz, Andrew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 12:07 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: /3GB switch Hey all, I have a simple question: Does anyone know if running without the '/3GB' switch in the boot.ini on an Exchange 2000 server with 2GB of RAM could cause message delivery problems?
