On one of our several Windows XP Pro SP3 machines with 4GB RAM
installed I added the /3GB switch to boot.ini and changed the paging
file boundaries to 8192MB. This was required for the user to do
renderings in Revit 2010. Prior to the change the renderings would
crash. Now he can do them, although a little slow.
On another identical machine adding the /3GB switch causes the machine
to reboot during the "user load" operations several seconds after
entering user credentials. Upon booting into normal mode (no /3GB
switch) the machine boots normally and the machine does not reboot
after user login. During "user load" a message stating the system has
recovered from a serious error is presented: Error Code 1000008e.
Any suggestions on why the second machine should perform differently
than the first, identical, machine? They are identical in hardware
and OS (service packs and updates are equal). They do have different
user applications installed, however. Thanks in advance.
