Ralph, XP Home Edition and Pro both have a 4gb limit. Home Edition: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q306824
Pro Edition: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q286463 One thing MS should have put in the memory limit for XP 64 bit is the minimum requirement which is 1 gig, good thing the Itanium isn't selling so well.
