I understand that a 32 bit operating system can only see 4 gb of RAM.
Windows XP had a switch you could turn on in the boot.ini file that
allowed you to use 3 gb RAM to a single program. I am a photographer and
utilize Adobe PhotoShop (a huge RAM slut) and after moving from XP to
Vista I find that I effectively went from 3 BG of available RAM in
PhotoShop to about 1.7 BG of RAM – creating a huge speed difference. Does
Vista have a way to recreate this 3 GB switch?

Interesting. I'll be curious to see how well this works for him.

I thank you for the link as well.
