Hi,

Make sure you test your system carefully afterwards. Many drivers do not
work with PAE enabled which is why PAE is disabled by default and can only
be enabled using low level meanings (Boot.INI on XP, BCDEDIT on Vista). The
effect is relatively low though. The operating system needs more memory to
manage the extended pointers which eats some of the memory you gain.

4 GB is an unfortunate amount. Even with a 64 bit system you don't end up
having more memory since a lot of the system needs twice as much memory as
before. It makes sense when you have more than 4 GB of RAM.
