Drats, dash darn it! So my lovely I7 machine can now run multiple applications in RAM even while each application need 2GB each but I can not modify my device driver to access the extra memory and give the driver 16 GB of paged memory to work with.
No, the address space is always restricted, even in PAE. If you want to make the extra memory available, you need to allocate memory without paging it into the address space. If your code is not designed for it, it would be a lot of work to change this.
This means once I am sure the code is debugged, I need to write it to work in 64 bit Haiku I guess.
That would be the easiest solution by far :-) Bye, Axel.
