You may think this Andrew Morgan 4 GB is a limit of the processor but this isn’t true; using Physical Arnout’s blog Address Extension (PAE) it’s possible to address more memory Assa’s Blog Barry Schiffer Enterprise Server versions of Windows (2003 and 2008) can already Delphi Praxis Ingmar Verheij address more than 4 GB of memory so why can we not do that with Jedi Api Blog Vista? The answer is: Microsoft doesn’t want that! It is all just a Jedi API Library licensing matter, we can see this in the registry. Take RegEdit and Jeroen Tielen goto HKLM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ProductOptions and Kees Baggerman doubleclick the Value ProductPolicy, scroll down a little until you see the value “Kernel-PhysicalMemoryAllowedx86”, next to it is the value Categories 01 00 which corresponds to 4096 (1000 is the Hex of 4096): .NET (3) Top Posts Active Directory (28) Altiris (36) App-V (1) Update AMD Display Driver under Apple (5) BootCamp Application Compatibility RNS 315: Enable the hidden (11) bluetooth carkit Automotive (5) Default username password HP BootCamp (1) Storageworks P2000 C# (5) Query Active Directory from Excel C++ (2) Patch Windows 2008 Terminal Server Citrix (86) to allow more than 2 concurrent Delphi (60) sessions Embedded (4) Trick to Export Private Key from Exchange (16) We can also see where this (and other licensing values) come from: Certificate Request General (71) if we look in %systemroot%\system32\licensing\ppdlic al license How rdp passwords are encrypted iPhone (5) values are in XML files.

Remko 2 June 24th, 2009 at 22:45 I didn’t test it on Windows 7 but it’s likely to work if the bytes match (if dUP2 accepts the 7 kernel because the byte pattern is found then you should try it). lector 3 June 25th, 2009 at 8:46 sounds interesting, although i never had vista installed for more than a day. but maybe for Windows 7 this could prove useful =) found a little typo: “next to it is the value 01 00 which corresponds to 4096 (1000 is the Hex of 4096):” 01 00 10 00 lector Remko 4 June 26th, 2009 at 14:00 @lector: actually the value is a DWORD so (as Geoff also pointed out) the value includes the 00 before and the 00 after the marked area. ghost2k 5 June 27th, 2009 at 11:18 The same rule could be applied on WinXP?

  • Windows Vista Startup Process
    Windows Vista startup process From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The startup process of Microsoft's Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 operating systems is slightly different from previous versions. Contents 1 Boot sequence 2 Windows Boot Manager 3 Boot Configuration Data 4 winload.exe 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Boot sequence The sequence of booting Windows Vista is slightly different from any previous version of Windows that uses the NT kernel. First, when the computer is switched on, either the BIOS or the EFI is loaded. In the case of a BIOS system, the MBR of the boot disk, which can be a hard drive or external media, is accessed, followed by the boot sector of the drive or of relevant hard disk partition. This boot sector then loads the rest of the boot blocks. For Windows Vista, the boot sector loads the Windows Boot Manager (Filename:Bootmgr.) which accesses the Boot Configuration Data store and uses the information to load the final stage, the Operating System. Windows Boot Manager The Windows Boot Manager reads the Boot Configuration Data and "displays an operating system selection menu",[1] and is thus, in some respects, equivalent to the boot selection menu functionality of NTLDR in prior versions of Windows NT. To maintain a consistent boot experience, on Extensible Firmware Interface systems, which also have a boot manager of their own, the Windows Boot Manager, and hence all of the installed Windows operating systems that can be booted using it, appear as a single entry on the EFI boot manager menu.
