Is the above correct for XP ?All 32 bit operating systems (WinXP and Vista32) have 4 GBs of Virtual Address Space
Is the above correct for XP ?
From what I can find, only XP Professional supports 4GB VAS.
This switch is supported on both Vista and XP Professional, although I consistently hear reports of the “Out of Memory” issue on Vista and not on XP.
User-mode virtual address space for each 32-bit process
2 GB
Up to 3 GB with IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE and 4GT
Normal Win32 processes have 2G of address space, out of the 4G available. The remaining 2G is left to the OS for its needs, drivers, etc. This is completely independent of physical RAM - this is how much virtual address space each process gets.

MSDN - 4-Gigabyte Tuning states 4GT is only available on XP Professional.
Not disputing your above,Since I actually have three systems running WinXP Home Edition,
and have successfully used "...the BCDEdit /set command
to set the increaseuserva boot entry option
to a value between 2048 (2 GB) and 3072 (3 GB)..."
Never seen MS make such claims.Keep in mind these are the same folks
who maintain that one cannot network WinXP Home systems...
Not disputing your above,
nor that the boot.ini can be edited to include the switches.
My question is -
Does XP Home Edition actually do anything with them ?
i.e.
What difference(s) are you seeing in XP Home Edition ?
