    The way VISTA handles memory I don't think you need the switch.

    On my VISTA 32 bit system Windows sees the full 4GB installed whereas in WINXP SP2 it only sees 3.25GB and I run the /3GB switch.

    Hey Mike,
    I see what you mean...I get a reading of 4GB in my Windows Experience Index. Just wasn't sure if it was actually reading somewhere close to the 4GB installed. Thanks for the reply.....
