Hello Frodo,

Windows 2003 Standard Edition supports maximum RAM up to 4 GB. If you like
to use more then upgrade to Enterprise Edition or use 64 bit version to get
the full 4GB running.

Hi Meinolf,

Thanks for the reply but I thought the limitation can be overwritten with
additional switch in boot.ini?
Just to ensure again.

Thanks again.

Hello Frodo,

No, then they wouldn't need Enterprise edition for using more RAM.
