[Digital BW] Re: CS3 and RAM use

2007-05-13 by kenseidman

There is a lot of confusion about the /3 GB switch and XP Home! 

This switch can work with XP Home (not guaranteed, anymore than it is
with XP Pro). I discovered the switch is supported by XP Home a few
weeks ago.  I have been using it without problems on my Dell Dimension
8400 with 4 GB of RAM.

I get around 2.6 GB virtual memory available to user applications with
it on, about 1.7 GB with it off.  I am also using the 'fine tuning'
switch /userva with the /3GB switch.

You can get details in the DPreview, PC Talk forum.  Look for the post
I started or follow this link:
