10GB memory

[Guest]

Hi,

I have a server running windows 2003 enterprise edition and it has 10GB.
The BIOS sees 10GB but the OS only showing 4GB. How can I make the OS see
the actual 10GB?

Thanks,
J

I think you might have to use the /PAE switch in the Boot.ini file. See
here:

Large memory support is available in Windows Server 2003 and in Windows 2000

Yes, the /PAE switch is needed in the BOOT.INI.

In addition, you will need to be using Windows 2000 Advanced Server or
Windows Server 2003 to see memory over 4GB.

Bingo -- I thought it was version related ! Thanx for the confirmation even though I didn't
post anything

That should have read "Windows 2000 Advanced Server or
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition"
