| Windows Vista x64 Ultimate | Non-Paged Kernel Memory In Windows XP, there was a registry setting that when set prevented the Kernel from being paged out to the swapfile. I don't remember what this specific key was, but does anybody know of a similar setting for Vista x64? I was just curious... |

| Vista Home Premium 32-bit & Vista Ultimate 64-bit both Service Pack 2 W7 Pro RTM 7600 32 & 64 | Re: Non-Paged Kernel Memory Hi Peter, The key is still there in the registry. The default value is 0, but you will need to set it to 1. Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management] "DisablePagingExecutive"=dword:00000001 |

| Windows Vista x64 Ultimate | Re: Non-Paged Kernel Memory I downloaded and installed Geekbench 2.0.19, and here are the results that I got: Before Locking the Vista Kernel : 3550 After Locking the Vista Kernel : 3607 Not a huge increase in overall score, but the system does feel more responsive. Maybe the results differences would be more profound if I increased memory from 4GB to 8GB. And desktop availability from login would also appear to happen a little more quickly than usual. I've attached the Geekbench results files. I don't have a Geekbench serial number, so I cannot perform the 64-Bit benchmarks. |
