Hi
Try the following switch in boot.ini /3GB -- Will Denny MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User "MKINSEL" <michael.kinsel@gd-ais.com> wrote in message news:2AD59A51-5E9A-4A77-A54E-0DDC1FD2F744@microsoft.com... | I have 4 sticks of ECC PC-2100 1 GB Kingston RAM (KVR266X72C25/1G) and Windows XP only sees this as 3.5 GB of RAM. As a WinXP MCP, I have been led to believe that WinXP can support 4 GB of RAM, so what am I doing wrong? | | TIA | | |
