I think I'll try XP with the /3GB switch.

It only works if your process is /3GB-aware. Most aren't.

Start here for more information. In particular, this.

I happen to know Wildfire can use the additional memory. Would have set it up long ago except W2Kpro dosen't support that switch.

Added: Roger Thanks for those links, and my brain now hurts from being streatched too much. I've always thought VM was just a way to use disk space to emulate RAM. Here they have gone and created bunches of seperate address spaces.

It seems starnge that there are almost unlimited sets of 4gb address spaces all being shuffled about. If I under stand this properly, when I have several real hogs running, each wanting to run up towards 2GB, I'd better have page space to accomodate the sum of all. Perhaps 8GB or more.
