Julian and Richard,

        Tom's Hardware recently had an article that explained why
        only 3 Gig of ram is addressable on windows 32 bit systems.

I have been informed XP will run 4 GIG but reports it incorrectly as 3
GIG.
 
I have it on my other site and a 3RD Party Utility (Avanquest) reports
it as 4 GIG.
