Re: Total addressable by XP....RAM+Page file=4 gigs?



Yes, because the Help in Windows XP specifically says so, and becasue
I understand that XP can access the two independently, and thus often,
in parallel.

Now I am asking about addressing space under XP.

Thanks,
Jim

there some specific reason why you still think 4gb of page file split across
two drives is going to help?
Just wondered

Hi, I have one gig of hard RAM and set my page file to 4 gigs, in two
2-gig partitions, one on each of two hard drives.

I know windows XP (32 bit version) can only address 4 gigs of hard RAM.
Is that also true for memory in general such that the total of hard RAM
+ page file that the system can see is 4 gigs total? So it can only see
three gigs of my four gigs of page file?

Thanks much!

Jim
