Re: DOES WINDOWS XP HAVE A MAX RAM AMOUNT

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



A 32 bit S can address a maximum of 4 GB RAM, but the mobo
and BIOS may limit the usable RAM to a lesser amount.

2^32=4294967296


A 64 bit OS can handle 2^64=18446744073709551616, more than
enough to make money the issue.
