RAM question - dual boot with XP

64bits · Oct 10, 2007

Im considering upgrading the amount of RAM in my system to 4 GB.
Which using Vista Ultimate x64 is fine.

But i've got dual boot with XP x86.

So just wondering if any on here has got 4GB RAM installed with a dual boot XP x86.
Do i need to use the 3GB switch in the boot.ini for XP, or will XP be ok with 4GB??

Read this,should help 4Gb Windows XP:

I think even if it doesnt recognise 4GB itll still work smoothly.
(besides i dont think 4GB is needed in Windows XP,vista is another matter though )
