Allowing application to use more memory

G

Guest

Im trying to create a application in vb.net that handles images, these images
can be very large and i usualy get OutOfMemory error when i get to about
800Mb of memory usage...

The strange thing is that the box has 4gb of memory and the /3gb switch in
the windows starup parameters... Apparently tho the application needs to be
aware of the switch to be able to use the extended memory range, like
Exchange server for example.

Im guessing this is a limit in the GDI/GDI+ library itself or a limit in the
compiler/framework in general...

If so... how can i make my application recognize more memory?
How can i make my application handle larger files?

memory is not a problem, pagefile is not a problem... theres some other
limit somewhere that makes GDI/GDI+ unable to handle large files...

Appriciate any help.
Thank you

//Johnny
