I have an IBM Server with 4 PIII Xeon at 700 MHZ, 3.5 GB de
RAM. I read on this site: http://www.microsoft.

Enterprise Memory Architecture
Using Enterprise Memory Architecture (EMA), you can run
applications that take
advantage of large amounts of physical memory on Windows
2000 Advanced Server.
EMA supports two types of memory enhancement: application
memory tuning--also
known as 4-gigabyte tuning (4GT), and Physical Address
Extension (PAE) X86.
Neither is enabled by default. Both application memory
tuning and PAE must be
manually enabled by editing the Boot.ini file.
Before enabling PAE, see Checklist: Enabling Physical
Address Extension (PAE)
X86
For help with specific tasks, see How to
For general background information, see Concepts
For problem-solving instructions, see Troubleshooting
To enable Physical Address Extension (PAE) X86
Locate the Boot.ini file, typically in the root folder (for
example, C:) and
remove its read-only attribute.
Open the Boot.ini file, and then add the /PAE parameter to
the ARC path, as
shown in bold format in the following example:
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Windows 2000
Advanced Server" /PAE
/basevideo /sos
On the File menu, click Save.
Restore the read-only attribute to the Boot.ini file.

the question is: Should i do this only having 3.5 GB of
ram?? The server is really using all the memory of the
server (i don't really thing that i'm using all the memory)

Thanks

Regards
