Currently, I'm running a Gateway Essential 933, with
Windows Me and a whopping 64MB of RAM. I'm looking to
maximize this thing, including a larger hard drive,
installing XP Professional and as much memory as possible,
which physically, would be two 512MB sticks.

As mentioned in #253912, that much memory would be a
problem for Me. Would it be a problem for XP Pro, and is
there anything in the hardware that would prevent it from
effectively using all that memory?
