    How much RAM support by XP
    Hello,
    I have a duel core computer. 2.11GHz, 160 GB HD, 2GB DDR2 RAM... Etc. How ever can u inform me that how much RAM is supported by XP? My motherboard have 4 slots of RAM, so I want to use 1GB x 4 = 4 GB of RAM. Is it supported by XP 32bit? I use 667 MHz FSB RAMs.

    You need to look at motherboard support too.

    Also remember the 4Gb 32 bit limit includes ALL RAM, so anything on your graphics card also comes into play.

    Two scenereos:

    a) Graphics card with 1 GB graphics RAM on card + 4 GB added RAM
    3 GB of program RAM.

    b) Graphics card with 0 GB on card + 4 GB RAM. System uses 1 GB of memory for graphics purposes. 3 GB of program RAM.

    In both cases the program RAM would remain the same.

    Numbers to illustrate a point.
