Windows XP 32 bit and 3gb ram question. I only play tiny maps anyway. Joined: Aug 30, Messages: 3, NBAfan , May 6, Joined: Oct 24, Messages: Its because im running a chinese Windows XP pro, which comes with a 'ghost' backup utility automatically installed that apparently changes a few things.

I'm still doing the switch as we speak, but ill post my. Or hopefully someone with a very in depth knowledge might know how to do this correctly.

It is a bit jarring especially now it is sticky. You must log in or sign up to reply here.

Message 10 of Message 11 of Well, that is moving right along, you aren't going to do too much better than that for a non multi-threaded application like Inventor Message 12 of App Engr.

Message 15 of Message 16 of Message 17 of In other words, regardless of the amount of physical memory in your system RAM , bit versions of Windows only use a virtual address space of 4 GB. The address space is split so that 2 GB of address space is directly accessible to user-mode processes applications, for example your Opera Browser and the other 2 GB is only accessible to kernel-mode processes Windows operating system, drivers, etc.

The bit versions of Windows were later in their production cycles improved to provide applications with a 3 GB flat virtual address space, with the kernel and executive components using only 1 GB. The 3GB boot. Depending on what software you run on your server, it might make sense to optimize the server memory usage. If for example you are running only a few memory extensive large applications that do not interact with the operating system but rather work on their own, you might want to consider implementing this switch.

The additional virtual address space that you give applications with the 3GB switch helps reduce the amount of memory fragmentation in the virtual address space. The switch can have any value between 2 GB and 3 GB megabytes.

It needs to be expressed in decimal notation. With the switch, Windows will use the remaining address space 4 GB minus the specified amount as its kernel-mode address space. You can see this in the boot. Another more detailed way is to research registry settings.

This will open the Windows boot. See the following print screen:. Now you can save the changes, close Notepad, and click OK to close all the open dialog boxes.
