Vista 64 still pukes all over itself at 8 gig in quite a few configurations. You get weird memory leaks and blue screens once you cross 6, even in 64 vista (note: not in server 2003 64 though on same boards). Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

Windows just chooses to reserve between 1 and 2GB (dependent upon the /3GB switch) exclusively for the kernel.
