i´m about to setup my new comp. i already bought 4 gb (1 x 4) pc2 6400 memory and i will install them on a vista ultimate 32 bits version.
i been reading about 32 bits xp and vista cannot handle 4gb of memory by defaults.
But it can be fixed with this:
Steps:
1) Access cmd: Click on the Start Pearl > type cmd in the Search Bar > and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter (this allows you to run cmd in administrative mode)
2) Type BCDEdit /set PAE forceenable
“BCDEdit is a boot configuration editor for the command line. Using the above command you've just enabled Physical Address Extension (PAE) which can address memory larger than 4 GB. â€
To undo, just type “BCDEdit /deletevalue PAE†, this will remove the added PAE settings.
Do you recommend doing this? or better installing 64 bits version?
I want to run Halo 2 pc, will this game run either on 32 bits or 64 bits version?
