Windows Vista without Aero on Core 2 Duo with 2GB RAM is working like peace of shit. Fuck it, I'm gonna buy 16GB of RAM tomorrow! I hate MicroShit!
I'm fed up with Windows lack of RAM!

My laptop works great, Vista Home premium with 2 gigs of ram. I'm running the new cs3 mastersuite from Abode, no worriesCarbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about thatComment

I already discussed this with someone in another topic. Apparently more than 2 gigs of ram can actually slow Vista down.
Dont ask me why. I remember finding an explanation for it and posting it in that thread.Comment

Check the specs, Vista 32 bit only supports 3.12GB total memory... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929605
You need to have 64bit Vista to move higher.... Or get a mac, which can do 16GB.Http://www.extremehole.com

This is going on memory from a few months ago but I believe when they originally mapped out the maximum of 4GB they decided between a 50/50 split of user data and OS. With the /3GB switch at startup you can get XP to allocate 3GB for user data but this comes with some limitations and potential complications.
Even with this limitation there may still be some benefit in installing more than 2GB of RAM (which I have in this machine). Hmmm.Comment

It would be handy if Vista let you tweak that maximum.Check the specs, Vista 32 bit only supports 3.12GB total memory... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929605

32 bit memory holes suck... on one of my servers with 4GB of RAM there's a loss of about 768MB at boot. That loss can probably be reduced by lowering the allocated video RAM in the BIOS, but it's production server now.Comment

XP is supposed to support 4gb, but at the most will only see 3gb(personal experience). To see the 3GB, you need to install 4gb, and enable the "3GB switch". Google it, it's easy to do.

it's the PAE switch (Physical Address Extension).
Vista runs great for me with 2GB on a standard lenovo box.
My new PC though will have 4 to start with ;-)Comment

Next time take the memory home and try it yourself. You'll save about 29 minutes and 30 seconds
It's the easiest upgrade you could ever have to make. They made it very simple and easy to get to.Comment

the ability to use more ram is actually a limitation of the 32bit application. Running 64bit Operating Systems, such as Vista x64 will allow you to use a LOT more ram.

Nope, not so.
The 3GBE switch doesn't allow the useage of 4GB simulataneously, it simply changes the % of ram from user/system to give more to the user.Comment

For me Vista sucks because it doesn't support my copy of Photoshop, any of my 3 different video editing packages that I use, one audio editor, doesn't support two of my external hard drives, and no drivers are available for Vista or ever will be, and my good laser printer is also not supported. Keep in mind I only tried Vista for 3 days before I re-installed XP again, there might have been more things that wouldn't have worked - but I didn't get that far. And yes I know I could go and spend thousands of dollars to get a newer copy of Photoshop and other other programs (those that have newer versions, which some of them don't).
That combined with overall slower response, and more crashes than I was used to with XP means that it sucks (for me at least)
Some people seem to be able to use Vista without problems, all the best to them
I'm sure MS will get it right on the next OS or issue a service pack that will fix most of the issues.

Nah, it's a limit of Windows. Linux has been supporting 4GG of RAM on 32bit archs. for ages.

i'd be surprised none still work , what you can do( if you ever work on Vista) Is right click on the app you want to run , go properties , compatibilty , then selct WinXP and even select run as admin. Ive been running programs that were only win98 without a problem.Comment

Thanks - that is really nice to know. I may want to run a Vista partition at least, and it would be nice to get things working in there if possible.Crazy fast VPS for $10 a month. Try with $20 free creditComment
